Defining Kaupapa

Kaupapa: My agenda is to create a transformative public space for social interaction, between tourists and the people of Berlin.

Tautoko: I want to offer a space that gets away from the tradition social interactions happening in coffee shops and cafes, that are away from the river side behind a transition walk way and extend this space into more open air, that encourages different social interactions; trade, discussion, exchange information, performance (music). 

I want to respond to the issue and make visible that Berlin seem to has a rude culture to tourism but there actually being honest, this space will allow for communication of different levels challenging the audience as performers wether it be music, watching, listening, reflecting the vibrance the community has. A community centre that isn't a centre, creating different atmospheres that make everybody comfortable where it be social or private to perform in there own way.
