One of the daily activities of the city—a tour on the
boat Barracuda (built in 1940) through the natural beauties
of the Patagonian landscape—was on this occasion transformed
into a trip along the route traveled by Charles Darwin. For
three hours, the Paradigm Confines Tour turned the entire
ship, its crew and the landscape into participants in a sailing
mise-in-scène.
The Tour offers options such as: creating a transnational
document (Transnational Republik), participating in a symposium
(Ali-Brouchoud, Jaio, Zaccagnini, Burns, Iregui, Herrero),
listening to music (Raquel Garbelotti, Wagner Morales y Carla
Zaccagnini ), reading (Smithson, Alÿs, Rolnik, Barriendos,
several publications), bringing out an NBP by Ricardo Basbaum
and drinking a Paradigm Sour (the tour’s special drink)
while contemplating the landscape from the prow of the ship.
