We organized an event, using only digital platforms and digital social networks, to invite to a headphone event in the Kubus. It was i.e.  ’advertised’ on Facebook and we also had our own website. The idea was to reach as many people as possible through virtual space and networks to come to a real place and event. The event pushed the boundaries of regulations and rules in public space. No amplifier was allowed according to the Ordnungsamt, why we installed a pirate radio station (well, short distance reception only), and so forth. Also Volksbuehne was not able to run the bar they initially planned, why we called on everyone to bring their own beer (sixpack), as drinking in public is allowed in Berlin. Within 2 hours, from 4-6 pm, more than 100 people saw our videos on June 1 in the Kubus (by Volksbuehne) on Rosa-Luxemburg Platz. We had to stop the event earlier than p[lanned, as the weather changed and it started to rain. In whcih case Volksbuehne uses the Kubus for their evening plays. See a little video taken during the event.
