Consent?
Description
Consent? is a research project into the role and meaning of consent in collaborative publishing. It aims to create tool/s for collaborative document curation which highlight the dilemmas of working together consensually: what does agreement mean, how is it produced and encoded, and how could a process of reaching consent be reflected in the printed outcome?
In Trimester 5 the project was developed conceptually through face to face research with feminist activists, into radical meanings and practices of consent. This research was then applied in the design of a workshop, which was tested out at the Piet Zwart Institute. The workshop produced a collective poster design by using an array of different voting interfaces, demonstrating the way that differences in how a consent-giving interfaces are designed impact significantly upon the type of consent (and thus, printed outcome) which is produced.
This project runs parallel to the thesis, in which I apply feminist theories of consent to collaborative graphic design. I argue that the feminist emphasis on a tolerance for indecision and uncertainty could be realized in design through the production of a range of provisional possibilities. In the practical project, the development of a range of consent-giving interfaces and repeated research/workshop sessions in which they are used, will attempt to realize an example of this approach.
The project will be completed in Trimester 6 through collaborative prototyping of a range of consent-giving interfaces (largely at Interactivos, Madrid), along with the fine-tuning of one or more workshops to be run during the graduation show in a publishing lab setting.
