SAVE THE DATE: Interfacing Amsterdam's Colonial Histories  Date / Time: Mon, 7 Dec 3:00 pm to 6:00 pm (with breaks) Location: Please, Etherpad & Google SlidesDuring this workshop, we ideate and explore tactics to turn iconic buildings into visual gateways that address Amsterdam's stakes in historical trade routes and slavery. By appropriating physical and digital access points and interfaces, we turn them into potential tactical tools to highlight our city's problematic past. Using fast prototyping techniques we will test out ideas and reflect on the aesthetics of such strategies, their ethical implications and possible impact. Feminist researcher and curator Chandra Frank will start off the workshop with a talk on the intersections of archives, waterways, gender, sexuality and race, and will join us in reflecting on the workshop outcomes.

TOD 38: Satellite Lifelines: Media, Art, Migration and the Crisis of Hospitality in Divided Cit By Isabel Löfgren Hospitality is central to the question of political frontiers where admittance and refusal across state borders may be a matter of life or death, and also touches on the fundamental ethical question of the boundaries of the human, the constitution of the subject, how and why we set these up, and ways in which we can attempt to bring them down. A majority of migrants today now seek refuge in cities rather than in camps, prompting us to rethink urban space to accommodate newcomers more long-term. Who has the right to belong? And on what terms?https://networkcultures.org/blog/publication/satellite-lifelines-media-art-migration-and-the-crisis-of-hospitality-in-divided-cities/
