An inquiry into the phenomenon of disaster in contemporary culture

 

The 21st Century is dominated by narratives of anxiety, insecurity, speed and uncertainty. Arguably, this perpetual crisis has become an accepted, managed and collectively staged reality. While numerous critics and theorists have deconstructed the language, logic and patterns of such man-made disasters, comparatively fewer designers and artists have attempted to construct alternative narratives.

 

Staging Disaster is a ten-day workshop for designers and artists interested in exploring the relationship between visual communication, perception and reality through publishing.

 

The concepts of ‘counter-reality’ (Jan van Toorn), ‘language as sculpture’ (Lawrence Weiner) and ‘theory object’ (Bruce Sterling) will serve as a framework.

 

Each participant will be asked to produce a ‘public file’ to be published as a collection (Books From The Future, 2018).

 

 

STRUCTURE

 

Week 1 – Methods

Designing the public files will involve exposure to a range of experimental methods of communication, research and publishing. Participants will be asked to test and modify such methods towards discovering and strengthening their own.

 

Week 2 – Means

Producing the public files will involve transforming and editing the discoveries and developments from Week 1 into a cohesive story ‘made public’.

 

 

OUTCOME

 

Public Files

A ‘public file’ is a folder containing an edited and sequenced assemblage of artistic research that forms new narratives through the interplay of personal and popular voices seeking to transcend the graphic, linguistic and performative properties used to mediate and perpetuate myths of disaster. This format is intended to function as both a metaphor and tool for open inquiry.

 

 

PROGRAMME

 

10 days, 5 days each week (Monday–Friday), 5 hours per day (10.30–16.30).

 

Days will be structured around the integration of thought and action, supported through readings, discussions, guests talks and crits, tutorials and hands-on activities, all conducted in English. The workshop involves fast-paced turnaround requiring participants to be resourceful and progress daily based on feedback from peers and tutors.

 

Books From The Future practices a think-and-do ethos encompassing:

 

¹ inquiry: how to pose research questions and convert them into reflexive strategies for form-making and form-finding

 

² concept: how to articulate and negotiate one's intentions, personal approach and results in relation to content and context

 

³ design: how to shape and sequence information into a unique reading experience, with particular emphasis on typographic systems
