Bury The Jumbo

Bury will have a presentation about the vision of the Bury the Jumbo community @ PechaKuchaNight. He would appreciate to see you there. 

11 march 2010

20:20 p.m.

@Kunstraum Walchenturm, Kanonengasse 20, 8004 Zurich

The Captain is going to visit aircraft-dealer Al in Bangkok. To get permission to see a Jumbo-jet, he had to submit some verifications:

To benefit from the Bangkok situation, the Captain will visit a cheap tailor there. Laura Bättig (Fashionslave) has spiced up the Captain's uniform.

Frances Belser and Patrick Graf and BTJ have created the installation LOVE YOU MUST. Silvana showed up with an extra!

The performance took place at 22 December 2009. A christmas action at Bahnhofstrasse, Zurich, during common christma shopping.

Supkultur's festival NIMMERSATT takes place every month at the club supermarket. Live in concert: MARYLANE, FILEWILE, FREIRAUM.

BTJ is mandated to design the location. Every month a new look. You can contribute your ideas, the community will help you to realise them. Production costs are payed.

In January, our Creative Contributor Chris is going to Argentina for 3 months. He and his colleague have been granted by the City and Canton of Zurich to represent "Helvetic Tango" in Buenos Aires.

This is a honourable duty and we are very proud of you - Olé, los muchachos!

Los Tigres Tangueros on myspace.

The last stop-over of the European Tour 2009 is Paris.

Bury & the Captain connected with the artists of 59Rivoli, an alternative culturel collective.

Bury was crying, the Captain died and the Jumbo crashed next to the Eiffel Tower.

In London, Frances Belser joined Bury & the Captain for a promotion action. 

In addition, B. & the C. met ZOOT WOMAN's Jasmin O'Meara to hand our Black Pin (for Creative Contributors) over to her.

For BTJ's Great Final Action of 2009, Frances Belser contributes one of her striking truisms:

LOVE YOU MUST

Patrick Graf paints each single letter on a white rice bags (100x40cm, see below). These bags are filled up with helium and placed in a row. The sentence hovers in the air and people can read it from a distance. 

We are very thankful for all the communities' help! The action will take place on December 22 @Bally, Bahnhofstrasse, Zurich, 5 p.m.

After the people from Qreamteam have visited BTJ in Zurich (see story), Bury & The Captain met the guys again on their European Tour in Venlo, Netherlands.

After the presentation of the creative business model of Qreamteam, they have been introduced to Mieke Smits, Director of IRFAK, a company which produces food for the Third World - using human fat.

ZOOT WOMAN is a British alternative pop group from Reading, England, featuring Johnny Blake, Adam Blake, Stuart Price and Jasmin O’Meara.

Last month, the Captain met the band backstage after their concert in Zurich, which was organised by Supkultur. Jasmin O’Meara immediately became a fan of BTJ and asked for a pin. Like everybody, she was told to make a contribution. There are no free pins.

Look, what we got! Our Jumbo will look very, very pritty thanks to Jasmin's contribution!

We will hand out the pin personally when we are in London, during our European trip!
