The provincial capital 2003 is a landscape in which you can move freely.
The state has its own rules, customs and atmospheric quality. An audio-system

the city-state while overcoming imponderables.

spheric development: From questions (days 2-3) to agitation
(days 4-5) to self-realization (days 6-7).
Acconci on the Mur, lives, in a performative way,
forbidden fantasies of the cultural capital Graz.
For this, it pays off to occupy an island , says the Theater im Bahnhof.
Acconci TV.
The island also has, like every state unit, a national TV informing and
directing its citizens and visitors. Moreover, you can see:
Who is and was there. Media monopoly Acconci-TV. Here, you are
shown on TV.
Acconci Memorial.
A video-memorial in the size of a home-video.
The republic of Acconci invites everybody in cities of about the
same size as Graz to send in remembrance videos of a beloved
person or one they hate and whom the world ought not to forget.
The republic of Acconci takes the liberty to call persons who
live aside from the media-mainstream back to the collective
mind. You may be surprised.
Acconci. Tax-system.
Acconci on the Mur is a tax haven. A true dream. In co-operation
with Attac Graz. Information and counselling concerning investments
by appointment.
