Feminist Search Tools
+Feminist Search Tools is an ongoing artistic research project that explores different ways of engaging with the items of digital library catalogues and their systems of categorization. The project attempts to stir conversations around the inclusion and exclusion mechanisms that are inherent to current Western knowledge economies.
+Together with Angeliki Diakrousi, I worked on further developing and complexifying the existing visualisation tool built by the design team during Digital Methods Summer School 2019, Amsterdam. The tool is built using D3js and uses as database the catalogue of IHLIA. The code can be found here.
+The project is part of a long-term collaboration between the two collectives Read-in and Hackers & Designers. The Feminist Search Tools work group consists of: Read-in (Annette Krauss, Svenja Engels, Laura Pardo), Hackers & Designers, (Anja Groten, André Fincato, Heerko van der Kooij, and and previous member James Bryan Graves), Ola Hassanain, Angeliki Diakrousi and Alice Strete.
+ +Magiun
++ Magiun is a magazine about everyday food. It publishes stories, poems, essays, recipes, photos and illustrations.
++ The first edition deals with eating in isolation - the struggles, the joys, the unexpected discoveries, the newly added anxieties. It came about as a desire to talk about our ever changing relationship to food, and how unexpected external factors (such as a global quarantine) can bring out new ways of relating to what we grow, buy, eat and share.
+The print publication was developed in collaboration with Simon Browne.
