DyskĄsą: dyskoteka dla rodzin z dziećmi

We invite you to the first fam­i­ly dis­co at Bars­ka 29 — there will be danc­ing and chill­ing, games and fruit.

In jumps and spins, sway­ing and cud­dling, we’ll spend time togeth­er with music. Dust­ed with glit­ter, we’ll splash around in endor­phins. With light­ness and ease and one big water­mel­on. Because that’s exact­ly how we at Hash­tag Lab pic­ture a great Sep­tem­ber. (A reminder: it’s the time of back-to-school and back-to-preschool, queues in the sta­tionery shop and sched­ul­ing extracur­ric­u­lar activ­i­ties.) With that in mind, we’ve decid­ed to organ­ise our­selves a hol­i­day vibe. We invite you to the first fam­i­ly dis­co at Bars­ka 29 — there will be danc­ing and chill­ing, games and fruit. The musi­cal cock­tail is being pre­pared by DJ Mysz­ka; it will con­tain more than one pineap­ple, and def­i­nite­ly songs by the bands Czereśnie and No, cześć, hits that don’t give you toothache, and even elec­tron­ics by Rafał Ryter­s­ki. The dance­floor at Bars­ka is already wait­ing for you!

The par­ty and ani­ma­tions are ded­i­cat­ed to fam­i­lies with chil­dren 3+, but in our stu­dio we have a car­pet­ed cor­ner for younger chil­dren, and a sun-lounger zone on the patio.

Per­former:

DJ Mysz­ka — that’s Asia Krukows­ka-Gulik. A the­atre edu­ca­tor, tutor and socio-cul­tur­al ani­ma­tor. In her day job she works in the The­atre Edu­ca­tion Depart­ment at the Zbig­niew Raszews­ki The­atre Insti­tute, but for some time now she has been ful­fill­ing her­self as a DJ. She has had the chance to play at large events and fes­ti­vals such as “Panie proszą panów” and the Insty­tut Fes­ti­w­al, EJC, Fes­ti­w­al Najmłod­szych, Mul­ti Art Fes­ti­w­al, in clubs (includ­ing Chmury and Bard­zo Bard­zo) and cul­tur­al insti­tu­tions across Poland. She loves peo­ple and dance, and most of all danc­ing with peo­ple. She has led numer­ous work­shops for fam­i­lies, chil­dren and young peo­ple, as well as for edu­ca­tors. Togeth­er with par­ents and chil­dren she has pre­pared, among oth­er things, a per­for­mance in the exhi­bi­tion space at the Muse­um of the His­to­ry of Pol­ish Jews POLIN and a per­for­mance “Let­nie wakac­je. Niezła propozy­c­ja”. Co-cre­ator of “Zgubowisko” — a fam­i­ly new-cir­cus per­for­mance cre­at­ed in col­lab­o­ra­tion with Fun­dac­ja Sztuk­mistrze. Cre­ator of pub­li­ca­tions for families.

The media patron of the event is the mag­a­zine Kos­mos dla Dziewczynek.

Przestrzeń Muzy­ki Współczes­nej Hash­tag Lab is co-financed by the Cap­i­tal City of Warsaw.

ĄsąBąble are per­for­ma­tive con­certs fea­tur­ing new music for fam­i­lies with chil­dren aged 0–7. Each one is based on an orig­i­nal sce­nario in which lis­ten­ing to music, inter­ac­tive games and edu­ca­tion­al val­ue are equal­ly impor­tant. In a space friend­ly to the very youngest, one can lis­ten to the music of lead­ing con­tem­po­rary com­posers in a ver­sion and pro­por­tion adapt­ed for small ears. The the­atri­cal for­mat of the con­certs encour­ages focus and allows one to be enchant­ed by the sounds, while the invi­ta­tion to join in col­lec­tive impro­vi­sa­tions releas­es the nat­ur­al need for expres­sion in lit­tle peo­ple. In the spir­it of Janusz Kor­cza­k’s words “There are no chil­dren, there are peo­ple,” all par­tic­i­pants are treat­ed with respect and have a share in how the event unfolds. The series presents exclu­sive­ly music of the 20th and 21st cen­turies. A reg­u­lar fea­ture is the pre­sen­ta­tion of a record­ing of a sym­phon­ic work or a piece from the field of sound design and electronics.

While each edi­tion of ĄsąBąble takes musi­cal mate­r­i­al as its point of depar­ture, it also abounds in extra-musi­cal con­texts close to the prac­tice of Hash­tag Ensem­ble: lit­er­ary, visu­al, social. The events are inter­dis­ci­pli­nary in char­ac­ter: also tak­ing part are invit­ed artists who have long worked in close prox­im­i­ty to chil­dren’s imag­i­na­tion — dancers, per­form­ers, illus­tra­tors and writ­ers. The­atre is a nat­ur­al are­na for new music, and so the edu­ca­tion­al char­ac­ter of the ĄsąBąble series also incor­po­rates actor train­ing for the musicians.

The cura­tor and host of the series is Anna Sza­w­iel — an actress and nar­ra­tor who spe­cialis­es in inter­dis­ci­pli­nary cul­tur­al and edu­ca­tion­al events. She likes to work at the bound­aries: between con­cert and per­for­mance, edu­ca­tion and play, the phys­i­cal and the abstract, always in con­nec­tion with chil­dren’s imag­i­na­tion. The con­cert pro­grammes are co-cre­at­ed by musi­cians of Hash­tag Ensemble.

The ĄsąBąble project cre­ative­ly devel­ops the con­cept of the “Smykow­iz­je” series by the foun­da­tion “Muzy­ka jest dla wszys­t­kich”, with­in which in 2016–2022 Hash­tag Ensem­ble and Anna Sza­w­iel gave over 130 con­certs and mini-per­for­mances togeth­er, seek­ing the most com­pelling forms for pre­sent­ing new music. The con­cept and cura­to­r­i­al direc­tion of Smykow­iz­je was by Anna Kierkosz. It was the first series of events in Poland aimed at the very youngest chil­dren, in which con­tem­po­rary music played the lead­ing role.
