SZKIZ is a European exchange project for musicians and artists working at the intersection of experimental electronic music, improvisation, acoustic instrumentation and visual art. The project is based on three fundamentals: the exchange of and cooperation between musicians and artists beyond national borders, the transfer of knowledge through the development of a common practice and the social discourse on music and visual art in Europe. Within the time frame of three months all participating musicians and artists will meet in different European cities and work together on music and art projects for a week. The week includes joint workshops, sound lectures and the presentation of the collectively developed musical and artistic material. SZKIZ 2011 will take place between August and October 2011 and includes the exchange of musicians and artists from Austria (Vienna), the United Kingdom (London) and Poland (Łódź).

Venues include Cafe Oto in Dalston and The Others in Stoke Newingtong.
