"..systems of value, perspectives of globalisation, positions in recent local political events, ideas of centre and periphery, questions of local cultural production, influences, priorities and culture-imperialistic issues.."
"..in some cases the topics of discussion were informing most of all about the experiences people made in confrontation with a different , sometimes opposed system - was bedeutet geografie? Wie richtet man sich die eigene geografie der vertrautheiten ein? Welche kognitiven landkarten erfindet man sich? Welche faktoren sind für die zugehörigkeit der eigenen identität wichtig?.."
"..permanently the aim of the project seems to adapt to what the local situation requires often followed by doubts in the actual sense of it.."

At each stop, in each country, newly commissioned works will be presented in dialogue with Ataman’s original installation. Along the project there are organized donations for Danube flood victims.
Minority Logbox – multiple degrees of representation. Emanuel Danesch and David Rych will follow Küba’s journey, traveling by car and towing a caravan converted to function as a mobile videotheque. In advance of their departure, they will collect film and video works, representing multiple communities in the eight different countries, featuring ethnic, religious and linguistic „minorities“, but also non-homogenous groups marginalized due to other factors. These films will then be screened at each venue.
