Collective Research, Ecologies of Dissemination, Presenting

On Thursday, October 19 at 18.00 Eva Weinmayr will talk about her practice and the social and political agency of artists’ publishing. Speaking from an intersectional feminist perspective the talk’s focus is not on the commodity genre “art publication”, but on the collective processes, exchanges, and relationships such critical publishing practices can enable.

Open Lecture by Eva Weinmayr: Noun to Verb — the micro-politics of publishing

Noun to Verb: micro-politics of publishing, Presenting

What are the tasks of research publishing beyond mere dissemination? What does it mean to think of publishing as a scene of relation, invention, inquiry, and coproduction? What is at stake in publishing when it is understood as an event of knowledge and art making in its own right? What are the strange ecologies of idea, image, language and doing/being that emerge at the scene of publishing? What is the contemporary role of printed matter? How might the editorial be understood as operative with reference to the curatorial?

Ecologies of Art Publishing, has been organised in the context of the launch of the new book from L’Internationale Online: Climate: Our Right to Breathe.

The symposium asks what is the role of art writing and publishing and the processes of mediating, distributing, and reading as an act of repair or resistance, to create spaces of non-violent encounter of thought and creation when public spaces for culture are at threat.

Subversive forms of publishing are incited by a communal will and commitment to epistemic disobedience, through practices of delinking knowledge from Western rationality and dominant worldviews. Online and offline publications play a vital role as companions to struggles, as means of resistance, and as bridges across borders and generations. Radical publishing cultures involve themselves in establishing those bridges, or retracing severed pathways. The Study days are conceived as bridge-building between three correlated facets, Dismantling the Disciplined Catalog, Derouting Distribution, and Cripping the Canon.

Study Days Publishing Practices #1 are conceived and chaired by Amelie Jakubek. Guest speakers include Eva Egerman (Crip Magazine, Vienna), Jorinde Splettstößer and Linnéa Meiners (Galerie im Turm Berlin), Yin yin Wong (Publication Studio Rotterdam), Pauł Sochacki (Arts of the Working Class, Berlin), Shivangi Mariam Raj (The Funambulist magazine) and Eva Weinmayr.

Collective Research, Noun to Verb: micro-politics of publishing, Presenting

Keywords in library catalogues are never neutral; they designate, classify, and index. An act of interpretation is thus always connected with them. They frame and determine how books and materials are found—and, to a certain extent, also how they are read or interpreted. What socially produced and embedded structures are found in the descriptive metadata of the Art Library? How can traces of the work on descriptors be made visible? How might it be possible to introduce keywords that focus less on demarcating a topic than on how it is possible to work with it, that do not describe what books are, but rather what they do, how we use them, and what they do to us?

Introduction and moderation Lucie Kolb, in cooperation with Philipp Messner, Axelle Stiefel, Eva Weinmayr, Jasna Zwimpfer. []

Conventional intellectual property law binds authors and their hybrid contemporary practices in a framework of assumed ownership and individualism. It conceives creations as original works, making collective, networked practices difficult to fit. Within that legal and ideological framework, Copyleft, Open Content Licenses or Free Culture Licensing introduced a different view of authorship, opening up the possibility for a re-imagining of authorship as a collective, feminist, webbed practice. But over time, some of the initial spark and potentiality of Free Culture licensing has been normalised and its problems and omissions have become increasingly apparent. This study day is therefore meant to see if we can start re-imagining copyleft together.

Can we invent licences that are based on collective creative practices, in which cooperation between the machine and biological authors, need not be an exception? How could attribution be a form of situated genealogy, rather than accounting for heritage through listing names of contributing individuals? In what way can we limit predatory practices without blocking the generative potential of Free Culture? What would a decolonial and feminist license look like, and in what way could we propose entangled notions of authorship? Or perhaps we should think of very different strategies?
