In September 2025 the exhibition 'date, time' by Alanas Gurinas @alanyla took place in the artist run space bb15 @bb15
The works and opening performance, reflected on the notion of shared space, the threshold defining an interior, and the exposure of what is usually closed.
I had the pleasure to write about these ideas in a text, thanks to Alana’s insight and a thoughtful editorial exchange with Sam Bunn @smokeincanvas
Now you can read 'shared interiors' in a PDF from gabrielagordillo.net/texts/
Or in the 'date, time' exhibition's link

Po 3 metų veiklos be jokio finansavimo, mes ieškome paramos, kad toliau organizuotume renginius. Nepaisant nuostabios garso meno bendruomenės, savanorių darbo ir klausytojų palaikymo, „proginė“ negavo jokio finansavimo. Šiuo metu patiriame finansinius sunkumus - renkame paramą, kad galėtume iš anksto apmokėti menininkų honorarus, kelionės bilietus, įrangos nuomą, dizaino bei erdvių išlaidas.
Jau turime paruoštą 2026 m. programą, kurioje dalyvaus tokie menininkai kaip Ryoko Akama (Japonija/Anglija) & Anne-F Jaques (Kanada), Liepa Vozgirdaitė, Alanas Gurinas & Gailė Griciūtė, Ginte Prisaite, Adomas Palekas, Lukas de Clerck (Belgija) and Shuoxin Tan (Kinija/Vokietija).
Narystė suteiks Jums galimybę nemokamai arba už labai mažą kainą lankytis visuose mūsų renginiuose. Tapę nariais, padėsite mums tęsti renginių seriją, mokėti menininkams honorarus ir remti vietines kultūrines erdves.
per mėnesį*
3eur - studentams
6eur - Įprasta narystė
10eur - „proginės“ mylėtojams
***Nemokamas įėjimas į visus penkis 2026 m. renginius ir kvietimas į narių vakarienę***

is an acoustic sound performance which uses paper as a main material for producing sound. Different kinds of papers are placed between two wooden clamps and with the help of weights are being strained till they find their resonance state. As a result different paper drone tones and textures are being produced.
