Digital Publishing this Friday

This post was made to the blog for Digital Publishing

The first session of Digital Publishing has been scheduled for this upcoming Friday! We'll have more information in the coming days on the specifics of the class, but for now it looks like it will unfold as a series of short presentations and an open conversation amongst a larger group including, but not limited to: Simon Worthington (Mute), Adam Hyde (Floss Manuals/Booktype), Chiara Figone (Archive Books/Journal/Kabinett), Sean Dockray (AAAARG/TPS) and more! 

Here are some links about some of the projects that will be discussed:

THREE ORGANIZERS REFLECT ON DIALOGUE

 

Christian Berkes, Kenton Card, William Davis

 

The title of the class – The City and the Political  – was coined over a cup of coffee with the vision to explore the gap between thought and action, embodied here by the philosopher and the architect. The gap between the “city” and the “political” is a blind spot, which makes any integrative genealogy controversial and presumptuous, if not rash. We sought to create a space and community to debate this distance at The Public School, Berlin.

Subjectivation update & next readings

This post was made to the blog for Subjectivation/Subjectification

Hi Everyone,

We have a small schedule change: we will not be meeting this week, but will pick up for our 3rd and 4th session on the 20th and 27th. We'll be looking at two-three texts for the 20th, so this should give enough time for everyone to read (and prepare).

For the 20th then we'll read the two following texts definitely:

1. 'On the production of subjectivity' in "Chaosmosis" by Felix Guattari (Caleb). http://www.mediafire.com/?qlsppz11mc5r5zh

2. 'Multitude as Subjectivity' in "The Grammar of the Multitude" by Paolo Virno (Mino). http://ifile.it/1snbaxw

Since we had also listed Hardt and Negri for this week, I was wondering if we could read:

The Problem of Subjectivity lecture by Giorgio Agamben

This post was made to the blog for Subjectivation/Subjectification

here is the link for the lecture of Agamben that I mentioned, bringing into relation authors as Foucault and Deleuze brought from Descartes' Moderninity Subject, and their Subject/Subjectivity views, after yesterday's class.

I just got this mail from Egle about a project that happened in Vilnius, Lithuania a couple of years ago:
"This particular social housing project is an invitation to imagine and develop alternative habitats on the proposed Guggenheim Vilnius project site, on behalf of those disempowered and excluded from the planning of modernist cultural projects."

Rats & 0%

Thought of two recently published texts on the way home that touch upon things that came up tonight. The first, quoted in full below, is something by Evan Calder Williams in response to OWS. The other is longer, so I will just post a link, is by Louis-Georges Schwartz on the "0%." It can be found here: http://occupyeverything.org/2012/zero-percent/
