Ep. #168 - Lauren Berlant & Katie Stewart
No full textThis recording and transcript form part of a collection of podcasts conducted by the Cultures of Energy at Rice University. Cultures of Energy brings writers, artists and scholars together to talk, think and feel their way into the Anthropocene. We cover serious issues like climate change, species extinction and energy transition. But we also try to confront seemingly huge and insurmountable problems with insight, creativity and laughter.Cymene discovers the joy of Bob Ross on this week’s edition of the podcast and your co-hosts take a moment to discuss the scandal that is pay to play higher education. Then (18:09) we welcome to the pod the dynamite duo of Lauren Berlant and Katie Stewart to talk about their marvelous new book, The Hundreds(https://www.dukeupress.edu/the-hundreds?viewby=subject&categoryid=80&sort=author in which the contributions are all written in multiples of a hundred words. We hear the origin story of the project and its aim to explore ways of documenting ordinariness in which one could develop concepts based on descriptions. We turn from there to Katie and Lauren’s different writing styles, affectography vs. ethnography, and the magic of shortness. Our guests discuss whether there is a new critical and collaborative ethics afoot in the human sciences today and muse on the intimacy of misrecognition. We talk about their new series at Duke UP, “Writing Matters”, and how they came to the idea for the unusual index and reference sections of the book. Finally, we close with their advice to scholars just starting out on fostering collaborations and talk about importance of building trust and why there’s nothing better than good brainstorming
Forms of Attachment:Affect at the Limits of the Political
No full textAffective attachments can be regarded as fostering a kind of complementarity, yet without negating the tense nature of mixed and sometimes contradicting feelings. We would like to investigate this aspect in more detail by posing the following questions: How do affective attachments function as structures of relationality that organize lived experiences of the present? What role do sensory registers play in the accretion of habits, histories, and rhythms of living into forms of sociality? What forms of life are made possible and available, disavowed and denied by ambivalent investments in objects of promise and nostalgia that appear increasingly frayed, including neoliberal good-life fantasies and images of sovereign and imperial nation-states? How are these investments sustained and how do they circulate in what Kathleen Stewart describes as the “charged atmosphere” of ordinary living? Programme Part I: Discussion Lauren Berlant (University of Chicago) Kathleen Stewart (University of Texas, Austin) Interrogating forms of attachment means thinking about how material and affective structures give shape to subjectivities, publics, nations, and worlds. It demands looking closely at how forms of life are organized and disorganized at the very moment of their emergence and at the openings, possibilities, foreclosures, and enclosures enabled by the bindings and unbindings at work in the historical present. Lauren Berlant has suggested that thinking the political differently requires a “lateral exploration of an elsewhere that is first perceptible as an atmosphere.” Under what conditions do alternative routes for living take form and unfold? How are they registered by aesthetic renditions of affective experience? How do they inform the politics of precarity and vulnerability? And in what ways are they able to disrupt the fantasies that structure the late modern world and the normativities they engender? 19:30 Welcome 19:40 Opening Remarks from Each Speaker 20:00 Moderated Discussion 20:45 Q&A 10 July 2012, 10:00 – 16:00 Part II: Workshop Lauren Berlant (University of Chicago) Kathleen Stewart (University of Texas, Austin) This workshop offers a space for conversation around the ambivalent, paradoxical, and ordinary forms of attachment that sustain and preclude modes of living. It asks how we can suggest ways to think about a shared present that is neither presentist nor teleological. To think of the specificities of the contemporary moment is to critique with awareness of historical contingency, of the meaning of the substance of existence and worlds, and of fantasies that both shape and are troubled by shared affective responses, languages, and atmospheres

Des taxonomies surprenantes : une recension du livre The Hundreds de Lauren Berlant et Kathleen Stewart
No full textIn this book review, the form and function of what the writing is doing in Lauren Berlant and Kathleen Stewart’s The Hundreds is one of the many points of focus. Following the lines of posthuman, new materialist, and affect theories, the poems (what the authors refer to as makings) offer a fresh and lively engagement with academic scholarship. This is a scholarship interwoven with creativity presenting an elsewhere of form for the merging of academic and creative thought. Berlant and Stewart use engaging ideas to offer their book as an encounter and allow for interactive opportunities for their readers. While this is a concise book at 173 pages, it has no shortage of depth and creativity, concepts that the reviewer explores.Dans cette recension, la forme et la fonction de ce que fait l’écriture dans The Hundreds de Lauren Berlant et Kathleen Stewart est l’un des nombreux points d’intérêt. Suivant les lignes des théories posthumaines, matérialistes et affectives, les poèmes (ce que les auteurs appellent des makings) offrent un engagement nouveau et vivant avec l'érudition universitaire. Il s’agit d’une recherche entrelacée à la créativité présentant un « ailleurs de forme » pour la fusion de la pensée académique et créative. Berlant et Stewart utilisent des idées engageantes afin de proposer leur livre comme une rencontre et d’y offrir des occasions interactives à leurs lecteurs. Bien qu'il s'agisse d'un livre concis de 173 pages, il ne manque pas de profondeur et de créativité, des concepts explorés par la critique

Escritura ordinaria: teorizando laafectividaddel presente en The Hundredsde Lauren Berlanty Kathleen Stewart
No full textThe present work explores how affect is conceptualized throughout The Hundreds (2019), a collaborative project between Lauren Berlant and Kathleen Stewart composed of one hundred poems of one hundred words each (or multiples of one hundred). Throughout these poems, the authors affectively reflect on and theorize about everyday life through experimental ethnographic and writing practices, self-imposing a word restraint to their writing with the objective of exploring the creative and theoretical possibilities behind alternative ways of writing affect theory. Focusing on the unique fusion of poetry, ethnography and theory present in their work, this text explores the formal qualities of the poems and how the distinctions between criticism and fiction are blurred through a series of creative and experimental tactics that point towards radical ethical pedagogies andresist neoliberal values in academia.Some of these tactics specifically subvert academic conventions regarding citation, authorship and enunciation, and point towards innovative ways of inhabiting the place of the scholar and understanding academia itself. One of the central questions this investigation seeks to answer is how form is used by Berlant and Stewart in The Hundredsto theorize affect, with a special focus on how their efforts amount to what could speculatively be called«ordinary writing», a method to creatively describe and conceptualize the ordinary.El presente artículo estudia cómo los afectos son conceptualizados en The Hundreds (2019), el proyectoco laborativo entre Lauren Berlanty Kathleen Stewart compuesto por cien poemas de cien palabras (o múltiplos de cien palabras). Con ellos, las autoras reflexionan crítica y afectivamente sobre la vida diaria y la teorizan a través de prácticas de escritura etnográfica y teórico-experimentales, autoimponiéndose una restricción de palabras en el momento de la escritura para explorar las posibilidades detrás de formas alternativas de escribir y teorizar los afectos. Centrándose en la fusión de poesía, etnografía y teoría presente en The Hundreds, este trabajo explora las cualidades formales de los poemas del libro y cómo las fronteras entre la ficción y la crítica se difuminan a través de una serie de tácticas experimentales y creativas que sugieren pedagogías éticas radicales y resisten los valores neoliberales presentes en la academia. Algunas de estas tácticas subvierten convenciones académicas referidas a prácticas enunciativas, de citación y de autoría, sugiriendo formas innovadoras de habitar el lugar del académico y nuevas formas de entender la propia academia. Una de las preguntas centrales que esta investigación intenta responder es cómo la forma es utilizada por Berlant y Stewart en su texto para teorizar los afectos, prestando especial atención al modo en que sus prácticas constituyen lo que se podría denominar «escritura ordinaria», un método creativo para teorizar y describir lo ordinario y las condiciones afectivas del presente
