Welcome to new members of Mapping Horizons!
Please contact me by email (bronwen.wilson@uea.ac.uk) so that I can add you to the dropbox folder.
In the folder you will find a bibliography and readings that will be updated and supplemented during our work.
Together, we are creating three working bibliographies: Theoretical readings, Members work-in-progress, Historical studies.
From these, each member will each choose a minimum of three readings for annotations/responses/notes.
Friday, December 21, all participants to have sent me details for the bibliographies.
I will circulate an updated bibliography the following day.
For January 15: from that list, please send me brief annotations/responses for readings (minimum of 3, c. 500 words each). Consider how the readings contribute to:
- Understanding oscillations, passages, exchanges between the line and the grid, between the pre discursive and the discursive, between practice and theory.
- Is conversion a potentially useful theoretical term (particularly untethered from, and/or perhaps in relation to religious conversion?
- What new questions arise from the reading?
While doing the readings, please consider our terms:
What are the historical, instrumental, epistemological, and metaphorical meanings of:
1) Line, horizon, threshold, grid; 2) Body, space, extension; 3) Publication, circulation, navigation?
Please send me one artifact, picture, map etc. for one of the terms.
For January 30: BW will collate and circulate our responses to create
1) a collaborative annotated bibliography
2) a list of questions and reflections
3) the list of terms with points for each, and accompanying artefacts, poems, etc.
February – VT to coordinate a virtual discussion and plans for second term.
24 February – meeting in Montreal in which Angela Vanhaelen will relay our work to other groups.
