INFORMATION INTERFACE, PRESS & CONFERENCE CENTRE, EXHIBITIONS AND BAR Occupying a cultural reference and an important part of the city's heritage - the Cinema São Jorge - has given the Lisbon Biennale an added responsibility: to provide new uses and opportunities for interchanges that place traditional spectators and accidental public in a situation "beyond consumption". Beyond the venue's privileged setting as a meeting place, a place of consumption, an ideal space for gathering information about the Biennale, the Lounging Space is also a temporary cultural centre able to influence Lisbon's daily life. For this ExperimentaDesign event, Portuguese designers are invited to take part in a collective project of interior design. The bar-café offers food-design, and new Djs sets, from 12 until 2 in the morning. And the anchor events of the Biennale's programme - 1000 Plateaux and Designmatography - are supplemented by series and presentations that will lead to a cross-over of audiences and ensure an intensive occupation of the venue. The Lounging Space is not just an interface between the public, the press centre and a venue for the holding of events. It is a free area where interchanges will take place throughout the 45 days of ExperimentaDesign 2003, creating a unique space where people can come to exchange ideas and consume fast-forward contemporary culture. — MUSICAL PROGRAM
