Wor(l)ds for the Future

SPECIAL ISSUE 13

• Wor(l)ds for the Future collective page.
• Otherness, my individual contribution.

Facing Licensing for the first time. First time approaching re-publishing issues. How to preserve – expand – publish external resources/contributions? > Otherness by Daniel L. Everett.

Extract from You, the others – Wor(l)ds for the Future

Individual contribution

Using black <input> form to delete nouns and places from the narration, and at the same time making the room for subjectivising the given essay.

1 person -> 1 interpretation of the reality
∞ people -> ∞ interpretations of the reality
The reality is the cohexistence of all perspectives
Otherness= individual1+individual2+.. = Oneness
Embracing the Otherness

Embracing the Otherness means understanding our part in the given system of the world.

I created 3 web pages using Python. Pandoc has been used to translate markdown files into .HTML pages, but also to layout the printed version of the same pages.

• Demystifying HTML, .css
• Getting used to Python
• Web2print, Markdown, Pandoc

Woa!I didn't know I can make a printed publication out of a webpage!

The publishing process become a means for distributing (not-only) knowledge and the constitution of a public space of deliberation, where different points of social intersection could come across. Pleasure, intrigue and playfulness together in a "beautiful distribution" which embraces site-specificness as a method to re-approach the possibilities for sharing and assimilating contents.

Year 2

Habitat

Thesis

The Diary as a Form. The way to restore the most sincere, yet subjective image of Habitat as a cultural operation, but also as an experiment of living and surviving, was through the narration of daily encounters, discoveries, and all the details that compose the Habitat ecosystem.

(People in residence, Local communities and villages, resources, spaces, the environment, infrastructures..)

Started as a personal diary, later developed as a digital tool to be provided to Habitats' residents as a possibility to narrate/archive/publish memories.

Final work and research

=Activating the Archive trought the space

Me and Federico Poni (Minister of Infrastructure) will set up the Slash Gallery as an extension of the Habitat's archive, in which the digital files archived in our server (in Cà de Monti) are physically transposed or activated inside the exhibitions space (Slash Gallery)

Highlighting the connection established between Rotterdam and Tredozio, which makes possible access to our server from the exhibition space. (Worm↔connection↔Cà de Monti)

Elements:

1. Habitat Radio Station (Broadcasting for 1–2hours, inclusive programme: everyone can jump in)
2. PRINT! button – Emulate the "Random Page" in the Wiki. It prints a random page from Habitat Giardino.

> The radio programme for the day will depart from the randomly printed pages.

1. The paper Igloo made with the printed papers from the Archive
2. Screening: Habitat 2021 Documentary projected on printed elements from the Archive (like hanging clothes)
3. Habitat Bookshelf – a selection of zines, publications and printed matter created over the last year by different temporary residents.
4. Background Music in the space, playing recordings from Habitat's Veranda Studio
5. Poster: Open Call 2022 – with the poster I'm publicly projecting the intentions of Habitat toward the next session of residencies, scheduled for September 2022
6. Various Artefacts: The Sacred Harmor, the Javelin Antenna, the Pin-nic television (video from the I° Concerto), Low-tech/rural devices

future

"Living itself exists in forms that must be questioned, rearranged, mobilized, and undone."
N. Thompson, Living as a Form, 2012

Artistic practice can no longer revolve around the construction of objects to be consumed by a passive bystander. Instead, there must be an an art of action, interfacing with reality, taking steps-however small-to repair the social bond.
N. Thompson, Living as a Form
