Há alguns meses, concebemos um projeto chamado Experimentação pós-digital, que possibilitaria a criação de um laboratório, a manutenção de um site e a realização de três ciclos de produção experimental aqui em Ubatuba, ao longo de um ano. Inscrevemos o plano no mecanismo de incentivo fiscal do Ministério da Cultura (baseado na lei Rouanet) e o projeto foi aprovado na última reunião da CNIC. Agora é o momento de captar recursos. Não tenho nenhuma experiência prática com isso, então toda sugestão é bem-vinda. Alguém aí tem dicas?

O resumo do projeto está disponível aqui.

Geografia Experimental: da produção cultural à produção de espaço, por Trevor Paglen.

Instead of asking “What is art?” or “Is this art successful?” a good geographer might ask questions along the lines of “How is this space called ‘art’ produced?” In other words, what are the specific historical, economic, cultural, and discursive conjunctions that come together to form something called “art” and, moreover, to produce a space that we colloquially know as an “art world”? The geographic question is not “What is art?” but “How is art?” From a critical geographic perspective, the notion of a free-standing work of art would be seen as the fetishistic effect of a production process. Instead of approaching art from the vantage point of a consumer, a critical geographer might reframe the question of art in terms of spatial practice.

My point is that if one takes the production of space seriously, the concept applies not only to “objects” of study or criticism, but to the ways one’s own actions participate in the production of space. Geography, then, is not just a method of inquiry, but necessarily entails the production of a space of inquiry. Geographers might study the production of space, but through that study, they’re also producing space. Put simply, geographers don’t just study geography, they create geographies.
