The Sensing Salon : Reading The Exhibition
No full textThe Sensing Salon took part in the exhibition “Cosmopolis 2.0: Rethinking The Human” at the Centre Pompidou (23 Oct - 23 Dec 2019) . The installation consisted of an image of a reading we did for the exhibition itself, asking: “What is this exhibition all about?”. We paired each artwork with a medicinal plant and its properties, we read the astrological chart of the exhibition, laid out a Tarot spread and a performed a Reiki reading. The image composing the different layers of our readings is shown on a table and is accompanied by an audio recording of us reading the image. The table also hosts a Tarot deck with instructions on how to read, and a deck of cards with the pairing of medicianl plants and artworks, available for use. The image was designed by Arely Amaut.

THE QUESTION OF THE RIGHT TO THE IMAGE
No full textTHE QUESTION OF THE RIGHT TO THE IMAGE A book edited by The Abounaddara Collective with Katarina Nitsch, supported by the Swedish Institute. Since the birth of photography, individuals have defended their image in the name of property rights or the right to privacy. But these rights don’t protect the world’s most vulnerable citizens whose indignity is exhibited on the screens of the world in the name of the freedom of media. How can we conceive of a more just right to the image, based on the equality in dignity of all the citizens of the world?CONTRIBUTIONS BY: Nathalie Delbard, Farhan Hassib, Dork Zabunyan, Stefan Tarnowski ,Walter Benjamin, Sylvie LindepergINTRODUCTION BY: The Abounaddara Collective with Katarina Nitsch </p
JACK : manuals
No full textWithin me, there’s JACK. There are other people in the inner multitude, but this exhibition is about JACK. I get to know him earlier this year in a place called Locus Solus. Inside and around the derelict cinema Apollo on the Italian east coast my friends and I construct a parallel un/reality. Locus Solus lasts for forty-eight hours and is simultaneously a place out of time. A duration where JACK attaches in me. In Locus Solus he produces five abstract manuals. In an attempt to understand them he tries to have them realised, but what remains is an undelivered verse. JACK therefore invites my five colleagues to interpret his manuals. The essay contains transcribed fragments of the conversations between the five and JACK, with comments added by me. My exhibition is divided in two parts, where the entrance belongs to Johannes Hägglund and me while the main room belongs to JACK, Amina, Andreas, Aron, Ernst, Tora.JACK: Installation view JACK: Tora (glass, wood, paper) JACK: Amina (audio
To Inherit Thinking : Bernard Stiegler In Memoriam
No full textWe know how it sounds when the voice of those who are absent animate their words as we read them, as if from the inside of the text. How long after a disappearance is a voice activated through a postcard, a note on a piece of paper or a book? I reach for Bernard Stiegler’s books soon after receiving the news of his death in early August. There are many in my shelf, but far from all of the more than thirty that he wrote since the first volume of “La technique et le temps” in 1994. I read and I hear
