As a warm-up to the festival, it's possible to participate in BodyWalks. These walks through the city are guided by artists, who will share their research, observations, or discoveries of everyday life. These insights can be surprising or informative, dealing with such issues as: What is normal and what is not? How do bodies communicate with each other? How societal are our bodies? What is attractive, crazy, or shameless? How much tuning can the body take?
Duration of walks: approx. 1 - 1.5 hours, free
