Chinese whispers
- 2011

Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- Chinese Whispers is an edition based on the children’s game with which it shares its name. A voice recording of a whispered word chosen by the editors of the volume was passed on to an initial contributor who was asked to work with the recording, the sound itself as well as its transcription, and produce a sound- and text-based contribution to the volume. Additionally, our initial contributor was asked to pick a subsequent contributor to the series and make another sound recording of the whispered word for this person to work with. We set out to allow this process to continue until we reached a point where we had six confirmed contributors to the volume, each of which had agreed to produce an individual edition containing a CD and various forms of printed matter.The resulting volume is a box-set containing six separate contributions that share the same format and are interlinked by the gradual mutation and disintegration of the original word recorded which remains the undisclosed basis of volume in its entirety.Contributors: Neil Chapman, Jill Magi, Sissu Tarka, Uriel Orlow, Brendan Fernandes and Jaanika Peerna.

Counting Each Step of the Sun
- 2010

Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- Counting Each Step of the Sun explores the diverse set of intersections between the voice of or in a text, the voice during actual reading, vocalization and subvocalization processes, and the recorded voice. It features contributions that in some way problematize, displace and deconstruct any easy set of identifications and distinctions between these different vocal realms as well as those which seek to render possible mutations, hybridizations, points of indiscernability and crossovers between them.The title of the proposed volume derives from an autobiographical story recounted by Allen Ginsberg in a BBC interview with Jeremy Andrews. Spending time in a friend’s New York apartment, Ginsberg tells Andrews how he experienced an aural hallucination in which William Blake recited his poem ‘Ah! Sunflower’ to him in a voice much like Ginsberg’s own yet distinctly different, emanating from his sternum. Ginsberg proceeds to recite the poem himself – ‘Ah! Sunflower, weary of time, who countest the steps of the sun, seeking after that sweet golden clime, where the travelers journey is done, where the youth pined away with desire, and the pale virgin shrouded in snow, arise from their graves and aspire, where my sunflower wishes to go.’ – bringing to mind his 1969 recording of the poem, performed accompanied by a small harmonium on top of the sound of which Ginsberg and others half recites, half sings Blake’s poem.Although this present volume does not engage specifically with the work of Allen Ginsberg, nor that of William Blake, it does draw upon the interplay between voices in this story – that is, the interplay between the voice of or in Blake’s text, the peculiar voices in Ginsberg’s subvocalization-cum-aural hallucination, the voice of Ginsberg reading, the voice we find on the recording of Ginsberg singing, and the voice of Ginsberg recounting his story. On the basis of such interplay, we have been gathering contributions from poets, sound poets, musicians and artists whose current and/or past work we feel have in some way engaged with or intervened in this general field. Contributors have been encouraged to think and work with similar intersections and interstitial spaces in their own poetics, and/or in the work of others, producing text and sound pieces/collages using editing and remixing processes that in some way destabilize, displace and render uncertain any easy and comfortable distinction between these different vocal realms.This volume collects the contributions we received and includes the work of Charles Bernstein, Caroline Bergvall, Christian Bök, Johannes Heldén, Kenneth Goldsmith, Lars-Gunnar Bodin and Danny Snelson.

Local Colour : Ghosts, variations
- 2012
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- LOCAL COLOUR : Ghosts, variations is a collaboration between In Edit Mode Press and Canadian poet Derek Beaulieu. The publication takes as its point of departure, Paul Auster’s novella Ghosts, and, in particular, Derek Beaulieu’s reworking of Auster’s text, Local Colour. Focusing on the tension created in Beaulieu’s manuscript between the textual narrative and the graphical mark, and the opening it seems to provide toward a realm of intermediality and experimentation, we have solicited a series of textual, aural, oral, musical, and other interpretations, as well as more machinic ‘utilisations,’ of Beaulieu’s manuscript. What interests us, in particular, is the way in which Local Colour seems to split Auster’s narrative text open, deterritorialising it by rendering it graphical and freeing it up, by the same gesture, to a potential excess of meaning. Seeking to extend and amplify this ambitious project, what we attempt with this volume, is to open Beaulieu’s project up for others to split open. We seek to deterritorialise the coloured rectangles of his manuscript – in every sense a violent yet affirmative gesture – and explore the horizons toward which such violence might take us. In doing so, Local Colour: Ghosts, variations collects and counterposes a wide array of strategies and approaches. It is an ambitious, vigorous collection that oscillates and moves between textual narrative, graphical mark, and aural impression, exploring these different realms while rendering uncertain any easy distinction between them.

Across a Most Radical Terrain : Towards an Aesthetics of Dissention
- 2007
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The 1990s saw a tendency within the field of contemporary artistic practice for outwards expansion: artistic projects increasingly got involved in wider social and political contexts; transversal and transdisciplinary links were established with other forms of practice; collaboration and participation became the explicit form and sometimes material of artistic practices; the group, collective or network was increasingly posed as an alternative to the individual artist in much the same way as the self-organized, artist-run space set itself up as an alternative to art institutions and galleries. Taking as its point of departure such notion of expansion within the field of artistic production, this thesis sets out to explore the aesthetics developed by these practices, and the link this aesthetics poses to ethical and political trajectories. Making the argument that all forms of practice posit a potential for such expansion away from the specificities that defines an activity as a practice, the thesis proposes to rethink aesthetics as an abundant radical potential for change within any terrain and as a function or process immanent to life itself. As such, it is constitutive of a continuous and experimental folding movement between ethics and politics that allows us to reinvent traditional notions of political engagement and think of dissention less in terms of a critical analysis of dominant conditions and more in terms of an affirmation of collective becomings and future forms of communal life.Recognizing that the collaboratively based artistic practices engaged with in the thesis call for a different relation between theory and practice, the thesis employs what it refers to as a synchronic method, where the text derives primarily from an interplay between a trajectory of theoretical elaboration upon the concepts it engages with, drawing upon the work of Gilles Deleuze, Félix Guattari and Benedictus the Spinoza, and a number of expanded and collaborative projects that feed into the thesis in the form of protocols and archives. The practices engaged with are thus allowed to expand into the realm of theoretical production in much the same way as the conceptual elaboration is allowed to feed into the realm of practice in the form of contemplation and reflection as well as in the form of a manifesto-like engagement with the establishment of future forms of artistic and other practice.
