Overcoming the first, "idealistic", phase of our work, we established the NGO Kontrapunkt, which, of course, would develop its actions wider than the project Disseminated/Confluent Margins, but in essential link with its ideas, goals, and intentions. Within Disseminated/Confluent Margins the most of our energy in the first half of 2002 was spent on the formal institutionalization of the project; at the end of year 2001 we established the Association of citizens Kontrapunkt, and in the beginning of 2002 we hired an old house in Skopje and we turned it into a small cultural center, named Tocka, with library-bookstore, room for debates and a gallery for exhibitions and projections. The offices of Templum and Kontrapunkt, bearers of the project Confluent Margins, are also placed in Tocka.
