about
- are you planning for an individual work or a collaboration (as in with another XPUB2)?
- what are the theories, concepts, frameworks you would like to engage with during the second years? (less is more)
- what are the practices, techniques you would like to focus on? (same)
- how do the last two relate to, inform, complement, or conflict with each other in a meaningful way?
- what is the issue you want to deal with (and/or damage, check again the queering damage questions, try answering them)
- what is the preferred medium or the media you are inclined to use next year?
- what kind of public do you intend to create?
- why is it relevant? (maybe overlapping, duplicate with the queering damage questions)

" We need to continue weaving knowledge among hackers and peoples in order to decolonise the idea of technological sovereignty and exercise it from a position of autonomy. " (A seed sprouts when it is sown in fertile soil)
"Such trails become like paved roads in our brains, and it takes truckloads of dopamine to feel pleasure. At each step, the necessary dose has to be increased. This explains why drill is so effective, and why it generates addiction. The desire for pleasure related to an automatism, which amounts to compulsive behaviour, makes us enter into a repetitive loop getting out of which becomes increasingly difficult because the neural pathways that are always excited, will not be able to do anything else but get more and more powerful with the passage of time: beat-rhythm-repetition."
