ETHOS Lab

So looking forward to our first event of the year: a tactile seminar with writer and artist Dr D Mortimer on sensual methodologies, crip desire & the fugitive archive 🪽

Participate are invited to share resources and create a toolkit for navigating the institution from the position of a “problem body”. We will discuss what it means to read in a fugitive manner and in what ways collective, embodied, disabled, d**e, q***r and tr*******al knowledges can/do infiltrate and disrupt the hegemonic structure of the university. We will read together. Instinctively. Surreptitiously. And discuss the role of crip instinct and collectivity in surviving the university system. How might our collective “hunches” and gut feelings be their own material resources? And how might thinking with maladjustment, frailty and dis/order prove edifying in a time of neo-liberal pedagogical invulnerability, rising populism, climate catastrophe and AI?

🖍️ Limited spots available, ITU students prioritised. To sign up, email [email protected], with your name and a line or two about your interest in the themes of the seminar.

Another piece on our Metadata blog, this time by on cripping methodologies, refusing normative time and the project of creating a design history archive of crip culture. Read it at ethos.itu.dk ☁️

Some photos from our event yesterday - a wonderful talk and workshop by , on food, natural history museums, colonial histories, cookbook taxonomies and how friendship sustains us in life and in research! We had a lot of fun making our own screen-recorded videos around food memories at the workshop 🥟🍇🌽🥥🌰
