KERYKES,Ephemeral structures Olympiad
Athens - mentioned
KERYKES are multifunctional platforms which generate a broad variety of programs and events. In peripheral areas, where shopping, production and living miss a cultural institution or social space, KERYKES offer a new location as a meeting place for local citizens and visitors of the Olympic Games. These event structures have a daily rhythm that adjusts to everyday patterns like shopping and commuting as well as to special events and leisure activities. The `possibility structures´ (KERYKES) activate the peripheral zones of Athens.
With KERYKES as activity generators, community activity and tourist events melt into one special moment of interaction. KERYKES are unprogrammed structures which provoke all different kinds of activity. They shouldn´t be considered as aliens arriving from nowhere but as catalysts which only survive with the involvement of the neighbourhood. KERYKES provoke occupation on and around the structure.
