Anke Binnewerg: Dear guestes, we also would like to greet you and thank Mrs. Suhr for the introducing words. We would also like to thank very much the whole team of the EINSTELLUNGSRAUM, especially Mrs. Suhr, for the chance to exhibit, the good communication and organisaton. We are pleased to be here today and to show our project TRANSFER within the series SHARED SPACE. SHARED SPACE - what is this? As you probably have already heard in the regarding event here in the EINSTELLUNGSRAUM Shared Spaces are collectively used areas or spaces in road traffic, The system is based on an equality of all road users which is not enforced by built obstacles or traffic signs. On the contrary: all road users are in an area together and depending on effective need may use it freely  and even create it. By mixing up of the road users more attention and consideration is occurring. Rules are replaced by communication. But the term SHARED SPACE, which is actually used to name a EU traffic project, may also be transfered to other areas. I am thinking of for example the common space in the internet. With our project TRANSFER we produced also a kind of com- monly used space and developed the rules for it only during the process. Antje Seeger and I started a very experimental project that was open for results. For a year we had a frequent written email-dis- course  with the subject driving and speed.

We worked together artistically already before TRANSFER. This showed us that with intense communication prolific ideas and results may mature that without exchange likely wouldn't have been possible like that. This approach we wanted to continue with the project TRANSFER. Furthermore we planned to make visible the processes that are created in the communication. So more and more the idea evolved to develop a kind of a process archive in form of an artist book. What is meant by this? In the artistic work huge amount of ideas are generated , tried out, elaborated on and refused again. The result - the ready work or exhibition - thus is only the tip of the iceberg. With the project TRANSFER we tried to capture the many possibilities that lie on the path to the result by informing each other about these. Antje Seeger: Dear Guests, I as well would like to greet you today to our exhibition opening of TRANSFER. I am pleased we could make it possible in EIN- STELLUNGSRAUM and thank the EINSTELLUNGSRAUM e.V. again very much, especially Mrs. Suhr for her active support. As you already have heard from Mrs. Binnewerg TRANSFER is about a one-year  communication project between the both of us. We wanted to find out: a) how do artistic works develop when they evolve under the influence of an agreed upon frequent discourse
