SUMMARY:a'21: Threshold Infrastructures of Residual Spaces-II Migrating images
DESCRIPTION:►a'21: Threshold Infrastructures of Residual Spaces-II\nMigrating images \n:: ABOUT THIS EVENT (EN/TR) :: \nAfter several years spent on the global agenda with its normalised images of misery circulating both in mainstream and alternative channels\, in September 2020 the infamous Moria camp was burned to the ground as a result of a riot. Perhaps this is an example of a residual space being “re-residualised” as a form of resistance by its inhabitants. Since the Moria camp burned down\, migrants applying for protection and asking for asylum have been forced to live in the “provisory” camp also known as Moria 2.0\, built on the toxic ground in an old military shooting area on Lesbos Island. At the same time\, a new migrant camp is now planned to be constructed in an area adjacent to the only garbage dump of the island\, in a way that makes the concept of “waste place” extremely concrete. What is the role of the self-representative images of migrants in all these oppressive dynamics? In which ways do these images resist against mainstream representations that normalise pain with countless repetitions? What is the meaning of a “self-residualising” image of a migrant taking a souvenir photo among the ruins of the burned down old Moria camp? How is it possible to produce resisting images and create circulation networks in a place where the self-representative images are prohibited and criminalised by the authorities? This border region\, whose militarisation has been increased through increasing fluxes of capital\, is not only hindering the freedom of movement and the legitimate claims to asylum\, but it is also trying to criminalise the migrants’ practices of visual self-representation and to prohibit the free movement of images. On the one hand\, there is the ongoing circulation of stereotyping mainstream images that contribute to the normalisation of suffering\, while on the other hand\, the anonymous images used by migrants to document their own situation constitute an attempt to controvert this condition. We will discuss all these issues and questions based on the direct experiences of the Lesbos based video-activism migrant collectives. \n► Click "going" on Facebook to stay up to date.\n►Join the event through vimeo. \n:: LINKS :: \n► Özge Çelikaslan\nFacebook\nInstagram\n► Pelin Tan\nInstagram\n►Nagehan Uskan\nFacebook\nInstagram \n* This event is part of Oyoun's a’21 Festival - Post Digital Ignorance x Techno Utopia aiming to challenge the status quo while centring perspectives on non-human life\, queer ecology\, decolonising knowledge\, forced displacement\, and more.The project was financed by Berlin’s Hauptstadtkulturfonds. \nProduced by: Oyoun in collaboration with amberPlatform \nCuratorial Team: Amirali Ghasemi\, Ali Cem Doğan\, Cenkhan Aksoy\, Christoph Wachter\, Ebru Yetişkin\, Ekmel Ertan\, Hamza Chamas\, Mathias Jud\, Milad Forouzandeh\, Mohsen Hazrat\, Nina Martin\, Rajaa Shamam\, Youssef El Idrissi Participants include: Eda Sütunç\, Danielle Brathwaite-Shirley\, Mary Maggic\, Rachel Uwa\, Renata Salecl\, Seloua Luste Boulbina\, Pelin Tan\, Yara Mekawei\, and many more. \nFunded by: Capital Cultural Fund \n► For media and press inquiries\, please email hallo@oyoun.de

SUMMARY:a'21: Threshold Infrastructures of Residual Spaces-I “Surplus of Destruction”
DESCRIPTION:► a'21: Threshold Infrastructures of Residual Spaces-I\n“Surplus of Destruction” \n:: ABOUT THIS EVENT (EN/TR) :: \nOur workshop -in three parts- implicates complex cartographies of images of forced displacement and war circulating in the digital sphere. We are particularly interested in discussing the social\, material\, cultural\, and political dimensions of digital media infrastructures and threshold infrastructures of residual spaces and related diverse issues such as counter-surveillance\, transversal labor conditions\, access\, curation\, and disruption of violence and social inequalities through visual documentation specifically open-source archives.\nInfrastructure is the object between form and law as architect Keller Easterling defines: “Infrastructure is considered to be a hidden substrate—the binding medium or current between objects of positive consequence\, shape\, and law” (K.Easterling\, 2014). Recently\, the discourses of infrastructure reveal the role of infrastructure in more complex ways. Incomplete and failures of infrastructure are often related to the nature of the infrastructural functions that prolong the process of the infrastructure projects. The process becomes more important (than the complete infrastructure itself) where actors such as the state\, local governments\, developers\, and citizens debate or negotiate\, which leads to more profit and surplus. In short\, instead of the complete object or presentation itself; the incomplete\, the continuous failure\, or the process of infrastructure becomes the vital part. Failure of infrastructure or interruption of infrastructural function brings co-existence of alternative ways of infrastructure in the network of such cities. Infrastructure as an assemblage is another current discourse of infrastructure. As geographer Stephan Graham describes: ” …urban infrastructures as complex assemblages that bring all manner of human\, non-human\, and natural agents into a multitude of continuous liaisons across geographic space” (Graham\, 2010). We call “Threshold Infrastructure” as multiple thresholds of spaces and mediums.\nThe first part of our workshop focuses on the specific region in Turkey that has been witnessing intense political\, cultural conflicts\, urban destruction\, internal migration\, and psychological outcomes for over four decades. Thus\, it is possible to witness the neighborhoods where buildings and humans become waste and garbage in the affected region. We present our continuous visual research that focuses on the residual space\, its dynamics and representations\, and the circulation of the subject and object in the towns; Diyarbakır\, Mardin\, and Cizre. While tracing the sociological\, economic\, and cultural reflections of the invisible sign and unrecorded paths that lasted from urban transformation and migration footsteps on the recorded material\, the workshop takes into its center the methodologies of forensics and ge-ontologies of visual documentation. \n► Click "going" on Facebook to stay up to date.\n► Join the event through vimeo. \n:: LINKS :: \n► Özge Çelikaslan\nFacebook\nInstagram\n► Pelin Tan\nInstagram \n* This event is part of Oyoun's a’21 Festival - Post Digital Ignorance x Techno Utopia aiming to challenge the status quo while centering perspectives on non-human life\, queer ecology\, decolonising knowledge\, forced displacement\, and more.The project was financed by Berlin’s Hauptstadtkulturfonds. \nProduced by: Oyoun in collaboration with amberPlatform \nCuratorial Team: Amirali Ghasemi\, Ali Cem Doğan\, Cenkhan Aksoy\, Christoph Wachter\, Ebru Yetişkin\, Ekmel Ertan\, Hamza Chamas\, Mathias Jud\, Milad Forouzandeh\, Mohsen Hazrat\, Nina Martin\, Rajaa Shamam\, Youssef El Idrissi Participants include: Eda Sütunç\, Danielle Brathwaite-Shirley\, Mary Maggic\, Rachel Uwa\, Renata Salecl\, Seloua Luste Boulbina\, Pelin Tan\, Yara Mekawei\, and many more. \nFunded by: Capital Cultural Fund \n► For media and press inquiries\, please email hallo@oyoun.de
