The Resonant Confluences project has been initiated by Palimpseste under the theme of public space. The aim of the project is to show that at the confluence there is creation. To illustrate this idea, each participant is encouraged to react and take action. The reaction can be an action, a movement, a text, a video, a sound, an action to suggest to other participants, a conference or a street interview etc. However each participant has to be aware that at the same time other participants are performing their action elsewhere.
