The Viennese duo Vandasye (Peter Umgeher and Georg Schnitzer),
MAK Designers in Residence of 2012, will be staging a cooperative
design happening together with Michael Anastassiades (GB), Patrick Rampelotto / Fritz Pernkopf (IT/AT), taliaYsebastian (AT) and the visitors as a contribution to Vienna Design Week.

Umgeher and Schnitzer, who originated the design for the current exhibition MADE 4 YOU. Design for Change (on view till 7 October 2012) deal with the possibilities of a transformed (post-)industrial paradigm of production, assembling a series of devices for the collective, onsite production of tableware and other items for use by the visitors to this experimental party with an unpredictable ending.
