Transmission in Motion Seminar (2021-2022): “Practices of Translation”

This year’s Transmission in Motion seminar is about radical translation: not in the sense of (linguistic) translation from source to target, but in the sense of relational and transversal practices. In this latter sense, practices of translation affect all parties and perspectives that emerge from and participate in the process. Translation, then, happens in-between media, spaces, and disciplines that emerge anew in each translatory practice and that come out of the practice trans-formed. Radical translation, then, is non-linear (but causal, nonetheless) and requires both criticality and creativity on part of the researcher/translator. Such an analytical stance often necessitates collaborative methods and didactics. The seminar sessions feature projects of researchers who switched disciplines and did not forget where they came from, who study translation between thinking and making projects as a two-way street, and/or who work on the new concepts, methods, and fields that emerge from such endeavors.

This seminar is partly organized in collaboration with the SIG AI in Cultural Inquiry and Art.
