The programme offers pre- and post-conference workshops, plenary lectures, workshop sessions, a rewarded documentary film, and voices from the margins.
In this project we let a member of the organising committee co-operate with others who have a strong connection with people whose voices are silenced, consciously, or most often, as part of ongoing Foulcauldian power/knowledge dynamics. These dynamics generate a perceived centre, where a-personal discourses become self-evident, and aren’t noticed anymore. Because of this people are actively marginalised.
Instead of theoretically deconstructing those power-dynamics, we hope to defy them, by offering silenced voices a public and a public space.
We give a voice in order to ‘marginalise’ the perceived centre.
For this conference, Mila Van Goethem will write and draw during lectures and workshops. The results will be shown in the break room. This way, everyone can see her impressions of the conference, and have a visual summary of the day so far.
In between lectures and workshops, Mila would like to invite visitors to tell her a story they would like to share. She will take note of these narratives and illustrate them as well.
Mila Van Goethem www.cargocollective.com/milala is a comic book artist who focusses on telling her own stories in a free and spontaneous way. She keeps a visual diary with drawings on her Instagrampage (@mila.vangoethem).
