Self-residency

Short description

For three months, from the 1st of March to the 31st of May, Just for the Record will be doing a research residency at RoSa. The activities of the residency consists of one research session every 2 weeks (specific details below) where we will reflect on how our activities are recorded, translated, archived and exported into the future. The material we produce in this period will be in a range of mediums or "outputs", from booklets and posters to texts or objects, which we will present at an event at RoSa in September. 


Specific details: The research sessions will take place every second Wednesday morning, from 10:00-13:00, in the archive meeting-room. Over the 3-month period this makes up a total of 7 research sessions (7th March, 21st March, 4th April, 18th April, 2nd May, 16th May, 30th May). In addition there will be the presentation event in September. We would like to present our work in a form of installation in the library and an event which guides the visitors through this installation. The installation can stand for as long or short as the organisation at RoSa would want it to.

PRESENTATION TEXT

Look back at what Just for the record has developed since the begining of the collective, organising events in different spaces and in collaboration with different organisations.
At RoSa […]

After two years of successive participative event-like projects, we would like to stop to take the time to go back to what we’ve been adressing, materialize what was done, give it more visibility and tangibility.
We worked a lot on Wikipedia, inside this huge ecosystem, bits by bits adding content, modifying phrasings and talking a lot around it with the participants.
Through objets, publications.

21 March
- Brainstorm:
    Contents we want to explore

• • How to publishing diverging versions history (Diversions)
    • Diversions text 2 versions (rewriting from Mexico)
    • rooms, architecture, map
  • Network - linking - lack of linking (Red Links)
  • The relation between fiction and reality (Pink screen cyborgs, heroines)
  • Memory factory, collective memory,

• • erasure of women from the collective narrative, every generation only remembers a few women and feel like they are the most progressive

• • Perspectives that history is told from (Wives and daughters of)
  • The web/network form as a way of organizing & documenting
  • Bots, puting human qualities in bot

• • voice recording, cf post card → le casier 

• • Documenting, gathering, make visible content we have and created already
  • What did we eat! - Bluecheese cake recipe - 

Publication/documentation protocol brainstorm

• • Alias' - psudonymes - usenames
  • Collective / collaborative
  • we need visualization!
  • safe, caring space - doing concrete efforts, like food - could we find an equivalent for a platform/publication or for the opening
