Parkineo consisted of twenty cars playing loud music parked in the main square of Matadero Madrid. A ready–made that transposes an informal urban configuration into a cultural infrastructure, the summer program of Matadero Madrid, explores the possibilities and contradictions of this displa- cement and the car as a mediator device. The incredible imagery and stories about Parkineo, the name given to this phenomenon of disco car parks, explains cars and their expanded uses as one of the main innovations of club culture in Spain in the 90s. The cars for Parkineo were selected with a local association of tuning called KDD Madrid. Each car was associated with a local music collective who curated their music, playing the twenty of them simultaneously.
