Living memory, crossing Alexandria, Marseille and Grenoble : Ici-Même invites to a sery of appointments calling to mind a trip to Alexandria, hosted by Nassim El Raqs festival for art in public space in Alexandria. As an attempt to share something : how travelling, meeting the Other, changing of scenery, displacing yourself move the borders and inspire our work and our thought of it. Ici-Même trips usually offer to slow down. Artists, students, actors of civil society and Alexandria neighbours are invited to share this time space. We invite you to this return trip, a way of building common points of views from this experience.

Participants : Emilie Petit, Delphine Blondet, Nassim el Raqs festival, Abderahmane Devèche, Florian Golay, Cecile Leonardi…
Partners : radio Campus and la cinémathèque de Grenoble

During spring 2016, Ici-Même was invited by Nassim El Raqs Festival, festival for contemporary creation in public space in Alexandria, Egypt, to create a performance on soundscape, inspired by « City Sound Concerts ». In this perspective, Ici-Même opened a 13 days workshop in Alexandria, in November 2015. Five Ici-Même members took part in it, with several objectives : meeting Egyptians future participants and create a French-Egyptian team, sharing the experience of City Sound Concerts, as far as sound and senses are concerned, experiencing it on Egyptian territory, and process the creation of the future performance for the Festival.
