An encounter with the public archives of Romania. In-between personal family history and collective history
Door Alina CristeaAbstract Archives are related to history, memory, and the creation of meaning. In the context of post-communist Romania, getting access to and studying the archives of communism are highly relevant to help us understand the recent history of the region, including those events that a lot of people would like to be/have forgotten. As someone born in 1989, the year of the Revolution and the fall of the Romanian di Read More

Door Philip LüschenAbstract How can we prevent ourselves from becoming too comfortable with adapting to human-constructed environments which seem to preclude open-ended exploration? Philip Lüschen researches his ambiguous relationship with public space and develops methods of ‘vagueing’ to explore possibilities for alternative experiences within rigidly scripted and rationalized urban environments.

Disarming Design. Between semantic, intentional and subjective meaning
Door Annelys de VetAbstract The term disarming design has been moving through my practice as a description of a book, in the title of a design label, and a master’s programme. The words seemed poetic and nonconformist, but caused tensions, particularly in the context of Palestine, where the projects are undertaken. In this text, its interpretations and values are discussed as a critical self-reflection to carefully regard the political and ideolo Read More

A fracturing practice
Door Patrícia DominguesAbstract With a background in jewellery and the craft of stone cutting, I am interested in understanding how materials and landscapes are cut, fractured, and broken up and how the fragmentation and reconstruction of the landscape is intimately connected with human skills, techniques, craft, and technologies. Within my practice I explore the idea that matter, rather than being an inert object, is sensitive Read More

Music 2.0 and artistic research. Beyond a thousand years of Western art music
Door Paulo de AssisAbstract Arguing that society is going through a major civilisational transformation and claiming that Western art music has been a one thousand year-long epochal phenomenon, this paper is a plea for a reconfiguration of musical practices, provocatively labelled as ‘Music 2.0’. This reconfiguration can benefit from ongoing developments in artistic research, crucially moving from an aesthetic regime of the Read More

Laying down colours and covering up layers
Door Aline VerstratenAbstract The daily life of Aline Verstraten provides a starting point for her paintings, in which her partner often appears. In this way, she explores the relationship between the intimacy of her direct surroundings and the necessary distance she takes as a painter from the subject.

Broken View. Congo and the magic lantern
Door Hannes VerhoustraeteAbstract As an early projection device, the magic lantern was often used for colonial propaganda. For instance, to showcase and legitimize the ‘good works’ of the church in the colony. But lanterns were also used by missionaries in Africa to evangelize the local people and create a colonized mindset. This text is a reflection on the work process of Broken View, an essay film on colonial images from the Belgian Congo and the Read More

Het theater van de pervert. Perversiteit als het edele wapen van de acteur
Door Katarina AntunovicAbstract In this contribution, Katarina Antunovic examines the term “perversity”. She approaches the concept as a paradoxical synthesis: highly sensory and physical, but at the same time always invisible and elusive. In Flemish acting courses, the notion is all too often mentioned, always with a different interpretation and often unambiguously interpreted by students in a sexual manner, leaving its exact meaning undecided.

Learning Trumpet with Quesalid. A study on skill and transformation
Meer MinderAbstract Skill acquisition entails a slow but permanent metamorphosis of the body and the self. In the arts, these transformations emerge during and through the act of performance, which can obscure the material and corporeal qualities of enskilment. By investigating the autobiography of the Kwakiutl shaman Quesalid and its interpretations from anthropology to critical performance theory, this paper will examine the relat Read More
