The HR consultant advises that workplace architecture caters for purposefully 'informal' spaces like the corridor leading up to the coffee machine area. This is where groups of employees from other divisions are most likely to congregate and discuss in a spontaneous way. "We are creating more open spaces for teams where people can interact in an impromptu fashion", boasts a company personnel manager. Management has caught on to the idea that gossiping and aimless hanging around constitute some of the most creative and inspirational moments for a human being. Ideas and intellectual capital must be optimised and all personal, autonomous creativity utilised in the service of maximum financial capital and profit." Art Of Work is a workshop designed to encourage a reversal of the Human Resource Management logic - instead of harnessing idle creativity and play for productivity at the workplace, exploit the workplace in the service of useless artmaking. i.e - 'Work Resource Mismanagement for Humans' WRM encourages employees to utilise work resources i.e databases, reports, memos, franking machines, tape + video recordings, and so on, taking them out of the workplace and redirecting them into other realms Workshop N0.1 &√Ǭ£45;&√Ǭ£45;&√Ǭ£45;- Sunday 19th April &√Ǭ£45;&√Ǭ£45;&√Ǭ£45;- Backspace Clink St, London Bridge Tel 0171 234 0804 Workshop NO.2 &√Ǭ£45;&√Ǭ£45;&√Ǭ£45;- Friday 24th April &√Ǭ£45;&√Ǭ£45;&√Ǭ£45;- Cybercircus LoveBytes Festival, Sheffield Workshop N0.3 &√Ǭ£45;&√Ǭ£45;&√Ǭ£45;- Sunday 10th May &√Ǭ£45;&√Ǭ£45;&√Ǭ£45;- Backspace Clink St, London Bridge Tel 0171 234 0804 Workshop NO.4 &√Ǭ£45;&√Ǭ£45;&√Ǭ£45;- Friday 22nd May &√Ǭ£45;&√Ǭ£45;&√Ǭ£45;- Viper Festival Lucerne [http://www.irational.org/tm/art\_of\_work](http://www.irational.org/tm/art%5Fof%5Fwork?ref=protein.xyz) (Source: Ninfomania NewsWire)
