Based on the principles of cooperation, coworking, participation, and process-oriented work, the festival's programme ranges from performances, works-in-progress, and different workshops to lectures, lecture-performances, discussions and interviews, with plenty other forms of artistic and social gatherings, thus enabling arts professionals to network and share a "coworking" space with makers from their or other fields.
The first edition of the festival took shape largely in the context of cooperation and coworking, and has featured a number of collaborative performances and lecture-performances, improvisations, and open debates, with each day rounded off by a public discussion.
The 2013 edition was held in the months of June and September. Programme highlights included the first public presentation of Jurij Konjar’s piece Still, the show Au Contraire (based on Jean-Luc Godard) by the prize-winning Geneva-based artist Foofwa d“Imobilité, The Seagull directed by Tomi Janežič and produced by Novi Sad Serbian National Theatre. It featured a choreographic workshop by Matej Kejžar and the performance Lil' Dragon by Eric Minh Cuong Castaing, who continued his research of the relationship between the body and the image in collaboration with Cie Shonan and fifteen children from Ljubljana. The programme also included an evening of short dance films and a showing of Wim Wender's Pina.
The 2015 edition has delved even more deeply into the topic of co-living by questioning and reflecting on the position of marginalized groups in our society. The festival opened with the performance More Than Naked by Doris Uhlich and featured, among other, hybrid performances KamPaKam by Vlado Repnik and Princess Play by the director Michał Borczuch, which analysed "the conditions of women captured between Being and Nothingness" by bringing on stage some female archetypes, such as Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, and ,Jackie Kennedy, as well as female iconic writers Sylvia Plath, Ingeborg Bachman, and Elfriede Jelinek. The festival also included a workshop and a solo improvisational performance by the internationally acclaimed Andrew Morrish.
