Opening of the festival exhibition by Head of Troms County Government, Line Fusdahl.

The festival exhibition, Arctic Take Away, reflects upon different ways of viewing the Arctic.

The Arctic as a takeout counter where you order whatever your heart, or stomach, desires. Mining industry, oil and gas, food export, drilling, digging and rock blasting – it’s become a part of our history. Is the Arctic a perpetual source for outsiders to dig in? For how long?

On the other hand, the Arctic has traditions for transporting, taking out and bringing back, moving, travelling - borderlessness. Until the early 1800s this area was a borderless zone. The people living here moved freely, bringing their culture and traditions with them, taking out what was needed, giving back whatever they had.

The festival exhibition addresses these topics in a nomadic way, complimenting the slogan, raising questions and inviting people to the dialogue.

Want to be a cultural activist?
Workshop and rømmekolle-demo by Eva Bakkeslett
Seamen's Club
Friday 16:00

How to make rømmekolle and get to know your microbes - an informal and practical introduction to intercultural practices.

When a cultures dies the know-how and experience of generations dies with it. So does the bond created by continual sharing of the culture. With bacterial cultures their unique and specific relationship to place and the connection between humans and their local microbes also disappears.

Fortunately, bacterial cultures are incredibly resilient and can survive for thousands of years. They can be revitalised by being given the right conditions to thrive. As a cultural activist you will have the privilege of reclaiming, nurturing, cultivating, digesting and sharing these microbial wonders to gently activate yourself and your local environment.

Cultivating cross-cultural diversity is rewarding. It gives you a Robin Hood-like feeling of stealing back what has been lost in a world where the often invisible transformation processes of microbes have been belittled, overlooked, neglected, combated, tamed or homogenised in physical as well as metaphorical ways. It is both tasty and rewarding to nurture and share these unique cultures.

Additional activities:

Intercultural button-making: reclaim your culture, befriend your microbes and share it with the world in your very own home made button.

Rømmekolle Radio: a unique blend of rømmekolle voices and tantalising noises. A gory story of germs, cows, caring and sharing across borders and species.

The Rømmekolle Radio program will be available to listen to at the Rømmekolle Revival Café during the festival and as a podcast that can be downloaded from this link.
