Abstract or Description

Contemporary research no longer recognises the stricture of an informing discipline or the limitations of an interpretative audience. We have moved on from working from inherited knowledges to working from the conditions of our lives. It is in fact our work, no longer distanced by illusions of objectivity, that has capacities to change those conditions through forms of direct engagement, both intellectual and cultural.

The way we work now, refracted through a set of contemporary conditions and informed by a new vocabulary that goes beyond the critical, is a form of performative enactment.

This presentation will unpack some of the emergent terms of our working practices and look at one example of working in this manner by the freethought collective: the ‘Infrastructure’ project at the Bergen assembly 2016.
