hackthon: where you ask the participants to explore a subject, through the development of a prototypes, from give a starting point.
|
|
|
workshop: where you bring in a certain technology/prototype/... and ask others to develop or explore it. More focused on a approach and see what that approach can lead to
|
|
|
(book) sprints: where the group writes collaboratively a manual / research text / book / and produces a wbesite/pdf/...
|
|
|
test session: where a given procedure/methods is tested on the participants and at the end feedback is given
|
|
|
...others or combinations of these

Media theorist Geert Lovink is apparently missing out on what is happening here amongst other places when he writes: "The Social Media Question: Where are the Alternatives?" poking at a broadly defined "geek class" and applying the term elitism to it. I have never met him and i believe he's well known.

## Diary notes
|
|
|
Poetics, the poetics of the medium, the poetics of the voice being metiated
|
|
|
Future: leaving the social sphere and the self, after the practice has been clear. Thinking of the condition of the medium, the device, the software, the technology/ the landscape of it, the low-tech, the abandonence. Metaphor of the human loneliness. Lonileness, how I experience it, and the connection with an object. The idea of it. Detachement of myself and the responsibilty of it.

# Proposals
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Streaming voices of West Rotterdam !!!I KEEP THAT ONE!!! Subterranean streams {#streaming_voices_of_west_rotterdam_i_keep_that_one_subterranean_streams}
|
|
|
|
|
|
It is a social project.Sound is used as a way to reveal things about
|
|
|
private and public, suppression of voices in that area with a broader
|
|
|
concern on how the voices are amplified. It is about revealing hidden
|
|
|
aspects of this Dutch area that it is connected How stories underneath
|
|
|
are revealed Sound excavation Where the private/public and gender
|
|
|
separation is present in that specific example. What modes of address
|
|
|
are present. How they are mediated. Is there a collective voice?
|
|
|
Leeszaal is my meeting point I visit the area, recording characteristic
|
|
|
sounds from it, walk and then visit Leeszaal as a meeting point of these
|
|
|
people that are related to that area.
|
|
|
|
|
|
what: a publication of a collection of feminist practices from wiki/git to printable pdf. A structure of a speaker listening to the surrouding and broadcasting back
|
|
|
|
|
|
why: occuping with sound, female ways of knowing, caring, concerning
|
|
|
|
|
|
I will make my archive of recorded sounds open to the people that are
|
|
|
related to the area and I will start conversations about them and their
|
|
|
personal connection with them. I wil give an object to discuss, like a
|
|
|
printed soundwave where they can annotate on it and then I will come
|
|
|
back with a new thing. THe process will be about involvement. Then
|
|
|
gradually this process will reveal topic that are important for them to
|
|
|
discuss and record voices or not. This process will create an archive of
|
|
|
sounds either recordings, findings, voices that maybe I will stream.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The process is about liveness. Spread the area\'s secret sides live. Its
|
|
|
also about \"re-membering of the past which, against the colonialist
|
|
|
practices of erasure and avoidance and the related desire to set time
|
|
|
aright, calls for thinking a certain undoing of time; a work of mourning
|
|
|
more accountable to, and doing justice to, the victims of ecological
|
|
|
destruction and of racist, colonialist, and nationalist violence, human
|
|
|
and otherwise -- those victims who are no longer there, and those yet to
|
|
|
come\" (Barad, 2018)
|
|
|
|
|
|
I am going introduce layers of mapping and I will reflect with my own
|
|
|
voice as well
|
|
|
|
|
|
in streaming you dont have the time to edit and reflect you just accept
|
|
|
it is like the agonistic model no time for thinking about future utopias
|
|
|
and realities but what is happening now. West Rotterdam what is
|
|
|
happening now. Archive as a process for transmitting (storage or
|
|
|
presence)
