ZERO GRAVITY TOILET
Start date: Sep 1, 2007,

The project Zero Gravity Toilet was born with the aim of re-discovering the social meaning of music and it has had two main goals: composing and recording a collective album as a collective band; planning and organizing meetings connected to the project's themes and activities. The project lasted eleven months and it has seen the constant and continous involvement of twelve young persons, the participation of thirty people, the organization of three seminars and two performances, the production of merchandising, the making of a website, the making of a CD and, last but not least, the making of two documentaries. These materials and events have reached about three hundred people and took place at the Defrag, a social and cultural centre set in Roma, except for the meeting about Copyleft and Copyright, which took place at the Scienze della Comunicazione Faculty, La Sapienza University, Rome, and the follow up event. Then, outside the project's main goals, the group has also made a research on the ways in which other collective groups act in different branches of the Arts. The group has even made two documentaries about Zero Gravity Toilet, and the Zero Gravity Toilet band partecipated to the theatre piece by Mattia Torre named "Gola", which featured the actresses Caterina Guzzanti and Francesca Rocca. The European Community contribution has been of 10000 euro, plus 1000 euro due to the follow up.
