#osmanproductions partisi sahane gecti, gelen herkese cok tsk. Long live OSMAN!







Fetish Party:
Dress code: All Black ve neyiniz varsa...:)
OSMAN PRODUCTIONS ilk adımlarını 2000’li yıllarda, uzun ve ince yollarda atmaya başladı… Yürüdükçe büyüdü, çeşitlendi, kalabalıklaştı.

Osman, aslında bir isim ve OSMAN PRODUCTIONS için de bir takma isim. Fakat öyle ki sokaktaki boyacıdan, meclisteki milletvekiline kadar her yerde duyulabilen, rastlanabilen bir isim… Tam burada OSMAN bir duruma da karşılık geliyor. Takma isim olmaktan çok her yere sızabilen, her yerde olabilen bir gülünç beceriksizlik, şaşkın ve dehşet içinde ama serin bakışlarla tanığı olduğu sahnelerin içinde süzülen bir hayali kimlik gibi…

Osman ismine rastlanabilen anların çeşitliliği gibi OSMAN PRODUCTIONS da ana akımdan, alt kültürden, aralardan ve derelerden geçen, hayallerden, gerçeklerden, müzikten ve her türlü imgeden, sokak sanatı, iğne oyası, tığ işi gibi pek çok çeşitte alandan beslenen ve tüm bu alanlarda etkin üretimine devam eden, herkesi de üretime ve devam etmeye teşvik eden bir oluşum.

Ari Alpert ile linolyum baski ve stencil atölyesi üç gün boyunca İstanbul Comics and Art Festival’da! 

2000’lerin başlarında kurulan elektronik müzik kolektifi Osman Productions, gerilla reklam metotları, politik duruşları, müzik ve performansı iç içe geçirdikleri üretkenlikleriyle İstanbul’un gördüğü en önemli yeraltı hareketlerinden biriydi. Üyelerinin dünyanın ve ülkenin çeşitli yerlerine dağılmaları vs gibi sebeplerden kolektif şu sıralar aktif bir şekilde çalışmıyor ama arada sırada insanı heyecanlandıran etkinlikler düzenlemeye devam ediyorlar. Bu etkinliği de bir tür ‘geri dönüş’ partisi olarak duyurmuşlar, heyecan dorukta.

 A tribute to the library!

William Shakespeare refers to the nine lives myth in his play Romeo and Juliet. There is also an ancient proverb that claims, “A cat has nine lives. For three he plays, for three he strays and for the last three he stays."

Some people believe the nine lives myth is related to cats’ ability to always land on their feet. Cats are also known for their dexterity and agility.
Over time, people witnessed cats survive in situations that surely would have severely injured other animals. Some people likely began to believe that cats must have multiple lives.

In ancient Egypt, cats were sacred animals that were worshipped as gods. Ancient Egyptians believed that cats were divine creatures with psychic or supernatural powers. The idea that they could have multiple lives fit right in with their view of cats.

But why nine lives? No one knows the answer to that one either. There are many possibilities.

For example, the ancient Egyptian sun god, Atum-Ra, was believed to take the form of a cat on visits to the underworld.Legend has it that Atum-Ra gave birth to eight other gods and thus represented nine lives in one.
Others believe the number may have come from China, where the number nine is considered lucky. The number nine — sometimes called “the trinity of trinities” — is also believed to be mystical in many religions and regions around the world.

Dev9t is Belgrade’s most authentic, most creative, most beautiful, most inspiring festival ever.

DEV9T’s concept is to fight for the survival of culture, because culture is inherently inhabited by all living beings. If culture is not preserved, we will become an endangered species, deprived of our existence’s meaning. Thus, this festival is a place where artists will be totally free to express themselves and to be creative at their own discretion. This way, DEV9T will turn from an artistic colony into a leading networking platform for artists, event managers, the audience and commercial sponsors, and that’s the festival’s goal. The Dev9t festival lasts nine days and therefore it got the name devet – because this means number nine in Serbian. And it takes place at Ciglana.There is a huge, breathtaking gallery, where over 1000 artists are presenting their work. The philosophy of Dev9t is to keep on creating.You will also have the chance to watch various artists painting huge murals or to take part in 40 different very interesting and creative workshops.
