	“Pause/Play: Culture under Pressure” is an international laboratory for artists, cultural practitioners, and other professionals passionate about digital technologies as vital tools in their artistic endeavors. The title captures the intricate dynamics of the contemporary art and culture scene in the (post)pandemic era, woven with political repressions in Belarus, the ongoing war in Ukraine, the post-war crisis in Armenia, and the turbulent situation in the South Caucasus. The project began in 2022 in Tbilisi, Georgia, and continued in Yerevan, Armenia, in November 2023. It also incorporated a preparatory online program, including lectures and mentoring sessions.
✳
The heightened insecurity within the cultural sector forced many institutions and individuals to suspend their regular activities indefinitely or shift them to digital formats. On the other hand, the digital environment opened up new perspectives and dimensions, facilitating international collaboration beyond political boundaries and institutional hierarchies. Consequently, this nurtured the growth of decentralized communities and horizontally structured initiatives.
✳
The laboratory offered lectures, presentations, and discussions on digital technologies and trends, such as AI, VR, the Metaverse, and Blockchain, exploring their use and impact on art and culture. Special attention was given to socially oriented and activist media art, as well as to strategies for forming self-organized initiatives, based on the principles of decolonization, social inclusion, solidarity, and active engagement with the local context and community.
✳
Participants in the project included artists and cultural practitioners who live in or recently migrated to Armenia, Georgia, Germany and Poland. Through their critical art and activist initiatives, they spoke out to resist wars, political repressions, neo-colonial and imperial ambitions of authoritarian states, and dictatorships.
✳
The selection of Tbilisi as the initial project location was motivated by several reasons. First, after the political repressions in Belarus and the Russian invasion of Ukraine, it emerged as a focal point for refugees from Belarus, Ukraine, and Russia. Secondly, it symbolized Georgia’s transition from its Soviet past toward Europeanization and Westernization. The complex geopolitical dynamics within the South Caucasus, where Russia wields substantial influence and political pressure, gave rise to cultural transformations, intensified polarization, and increased colonial, political, and social conflicts.
✳The successful conclusion of the first laboratory revealed the need for the project to extend and expand. This commitment to project expansion led organizers to select Yerevan, Armenia, as the next destination. While the Second Karabakh War in 2020 and the ensuing post-war crisis presented considerable challenges for the country with its young democracy, they also served as catalysts for transformative breakthroughs. Furthermore, in the wake of the war in Ukraine and the military operation targeting Armenians in Nagorno-Karabakh, Armenia witnessed a substantial influx of migrants. These ongoing developments exerted a profound impact on the socio-cultural fabric, which the project aimed to address within its program framework.
✳Alongside an initial preparatory online program consisting of expert sessions in art, digital technologies, and decentralized project management, the laboratory included visits to local cultural institutions in Yerevan, discussions with cultural practitioners, contributions to projects, and the curation of a pop-up exhibition “Translating Transition” at Goethe Zentrum Eriwan with a series of public events, including performances and discussions on the experiences of migration, existence and development of art and culture in the face of political crises. 
✳The exhibition was also created in a virtual format.
✳
The final event - talk &#38;amp; zine launch took place in April 2024 at NgbK Berlin in cooperation with Disruption Network Lab. 
✳✳✳✳The project was curated and organized by Kulturschafft e. V. and CSN Lab, in partnership with Untitled Tbilisi, with financial support from the German Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

About the project
	“Pause/Play: Culture under Pressure” is an international laboratory for artists, cultural practitioners and other professionals, passionate about digital technologies as vital tools in their artistic endeavors. The title captures the intricate dynamics of the contemporary art and culture scene in the (post)pandemic era, interwoven with political repressions in Belarus, the ongoing war in Ukraine, the post-war crisis in Armenia, and the turbulent situation in the South Caucasus. The project started in 2022 in Tbilisi, Georgia and will continue in Yerevan, Armenia in November 2023. It also incorporates the preparatory online programme, including lectures and mentoring sessions. 
✳
The heightened insecurity within the cultural sector forced many institutions and individuals to suspend their regular activities indefinitely or transition them to digital formats. On the other hand, the digital environment opened up new perspectives and dimensions, facilitating international collaboration beyond political boundaries and institutional hierarchies. Consequently, this nurtured the growth of decentralized communities and horizontally structured initiatives.
✳
The laboratory offers lectures, presentations and discussions on digital technologies and trends, such as AI, VR, Metaverse and Blockchain, and their use and impact on art and culture. Special attention is given to socially oriented and activist media art, as well as to the strategies of formation of self-organized initiatives, based on the principles of decolonization, social inclusion, solidarity and active interaction with the local context and community.
✳
The participants of our project are artists and cultural practitioners currently living in Armenia, Georgia, Germany, Poland, and various corners of the world. Through their critical art and activist initiatives they speak their mind to resist wars, political repressions, neo-colonial and imperial ambitions of authoritarian states and dictatorships.
✳
The selection of Tbilisi as the initial project location was motivated by several reasons. First of all,&#38;nbsp; after the political repressions in Belarus, and the Russian invasion of Ukraine, it emerged as a focal point for refugees from Belarus, Ukraine, and Russia. Secondly, it portrays the transition of Georgia from its Soviet past to Europeanization/Westernization.The complex geopolitical dynamics within the South Caucasus, where Russia wields substantial influence and political pressure, give rise to cultural transformations, intensified polarization, and increased colonial, political and social conflicts.
✳
The successful conclusion of the first laboratory revealed the need for the project to extend and expand. Our commitment to project expansion led us to choose Yerevan, Armenia, as our next destination. While the Second Karabakh War in 2020 and the ensuing post-war crisis presented considerable challenges for the country with a young democracy, they also served as the catalyst for transformative breakthroughs. Furthermore, in the wake of the war in Ukraine and the military operation targeting Armenians in Nagorno-Karabakh, Armenia has witnessed a substantial influx of migrants. These ongoing developments exert a profound impact on the socio-cultural fabric, which we aim to undertake within the framework of our program.
✳
Alongside an initial preparatory online program consisting of a series of sessions with experts in the fields of art, digital technologies and decentralised project management, the laboratory will incorporate visits to local cultural institutions in Yerevan, discussions with cultural practitioners, contribution on projects, and the curation of a pop-up exhibition with a series of public events, including podiums and artist talks that address the topic of the existence and development of art and culture in the face of political pressure and a migration crisis.
✳
The project is curated and organized by Kulturschafft e. V. and CSN Lab, in partnership with Untitled Tbilisi, with financial support from the German Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Kulturschafft e. V. is a non-profit cultural association, based in Berlin, Germany. Founded in 2019 by a group of creatives (artists, curators, art-educators, cultural managers, musicians, performers and scholar). In addition to institutional support of art and culture, we attach particular importance to reaching out and involving people who have little access to cultural offerings. Therefore, we realize our projects, not only in the context of cultural institutions, but also in non-artistic spaces, such as schools, refugee houses or public urban areas. Since our foundation, we have implemented various art and educational activities in Germany and abroad, such as creative workshops, laboratories, interdisciplinary forums, exhibitions and networking events.

Untitled Tbilisi, is an art institution, uniting artists and art activists from the South Caucasus, in support of the rights of women and sexual minorities, via art projects in the region. The art space was established in 2019 in Tbilisi.

The Cultural and Social Narratives Laboratory NGO was founded in Yerevan, Armenia in 2018. It is a multifarious platform created by a group of independent researchers, artists and cultural practitioners aiming to reveal the issues of contemporary social and cultural narratives which have an important role in the formation of civil societies in Armenia and other South Caucasian countries. CSN Lab has a broad range of thematic areas of a	
ctivity, including, but not limited to, memory studies and memory activism, cultural rights (gender studies, queer culture, tangible and intangible cultural heritage etc.), unfolding consequences of complex past and (neo)colonialism, urban and public spaces, and conflict transformation (dialogue through culture).

Translating Transition✳

Exhibition of the artworks,
produced within Pause / Play: Culture under Pressure Project

✳✳

Opening: November 10th, 2023, 19:00
Goethe-Zentrum Eriwan

✳

Address: 
1 Mher Mkrtchyan St, Yerevan, Armenia

✳✳
The process of translation entails finding the correct way to convey meaning from one language to another. The title, both metaphorically and in practice, alludes to the perpetual need to discover new methods of translation to adapt to the evolving circumstances of life in exile, particularly for those who recently had to leave their homes due to political and geopolitical reasons. People who were forced to leave their home countries, to cut a lot of ties, both professional and personal, facing the challenges of the need to 'translate' not only the language and new semiotic system in everyday life as immigrants, but to make everyday efforts to get to know and comprehend the otherness, to integrate into the new cultural context and social structures and re-evaluate their own identity in these new circumstances. The projects presented at the exhibition primarily reflect or are influenced by the struggles and the process of discovering new grounds and means to forge fresh ties and get new meanings.✳
The exhibition consists of the art projects realized by participants of the «Pause/Play: Culture under Pressure» project from the previous year, as well as from work-in-progress from this year.✳
