art, digital media, and composition, Miller reconstructs
the history of sound and recorded media by several of the most well

MARKUS MIESSEN

lecture
Markus Miessen: Welcome to Harmon Istan!
Thursday 18 November 2010, 19 clock, Aula

Welcome to Harmon Istan! Over the last decade, the term “participation” has become increasingly overused. When everyone has been turned into a participant, the often uncritical, innocent, and romantic use of the term has become frightening. Supported by a repeatedly nostalgic veneer of worthiness, phony solidarity, and political correctness, participation has become the default of politicians withdrawing from responsibility. Similar to the notion of an independent politician dissociated from a specific party, this third part of Miessen’s “Participation” trilogy encourages the role of what he calls the “crossbench practitioner,” an “uninterested outsider” and “uncalled participator” who is not limited by existing protocols, and who enters the arena with nothing but creative intellect and the will to generate change. Miessen argues for an urgent inversion of participation, a model beyond modes of consensus. Instead of reading participation as the charitable savior of political struggle, Miessen candidly reflects on the limits and traps of its real motivations. Rather than breading the next generation of consensual facilitators and mediators, he argues for conflict as an enabling, instead of disabling, force. The book calls for a format of conflictual participation—no longer a process by which others are invited “in,” but a means of acting without mandate, as uninvited irritant: a forced entry into fields of knowledge that arguably benefit from exterior thinking. Sometimes, democracy has to be avoided at all costs.


Markus Miessen (*1978) is an architect, consultant, educator, and writer. In 2002, he set up Studio Miessen, a collaborative agency for spatial practice and cultural inquiry, and in 2007, he co-founded the London- and Berlin-based architectural practice nOffice. In various collaborations, Miessen has (co-)published: The Nightmare of Participation – Crossbench Praxis as a Mode of Criticality (Sternberg Press, 2010), Institution Building: Artists, Curators, Architects in the Struggle for Institutional Space (Sternberg Press, 2009), When Economies Become Form (Berlage Institute, 2009), East Coast Europe (Sternberg Press, 2008), The Violence of Participation (Sternberg Press, 2007), With/Without: Spatial Products, Practices, and Politics in the Middle East (Bidoun, 2007), Did Someone Say Participate? An Atlas of Spatial Practice (MIT Press, 2006), and Spaces of Uncertainty (Müller+Busmann, 2002). In 2008, The Independent listed Did Someone Say Participate? as one of the ten best architecture books of all time. Miessen frequently contributes to international magazines and journals, such as Artforum, Log, 032c, Bidoun, Volume, and Kaleidoscope. His work has been published and exhibited widely, including at the Lyon, Venice, Performa (NY), Manifesta (Murcia), and Shenzhen Biennials. He has taught and lectured at the Architectural Association, London (2004–08), the Berlage Institute, Rotterdam (2009–10), Columbia University, and MIT. He has consulted the Slovenian Government during Slovenia’s presidency of the EU council, the European Kunsthalle, the Serpentine Gallery, the Dutch organization SKOR, and the Swiss think tank W.I.R.E. In 2008, he founded the Winter School Middle East (Dubai/Kuwait). Miessen currently works (with Joseph Grima) as a Harvard Fellow on a research project in Kuwait, is a professor for architecture and curatorial practice at the Hochschule für Gestaltung (Karlsruhe), a Ph.D. candidate at the Centre for Research Architecture (Goldsmiths, London), an editor of Archive Journal (Berlin/Turin), and recently has been elected a member of the European Cultural Parliament.

Freitag, 12. Novembert 2010, 19 Uhr, Aula

Artists, reporters, citizens, scholars, activists and archivists are doing exciting things that link the image to political and social struggles, often in unexpected ways. Their work is interesting in its own right, and for the deeper questions it often raises about the fundamental concepts of photojournalism. What are evidence, access, coverage, reporting, bearing witness, and how are these practices in their hegemonic form increasingly fragile and open to reconsideration?

EYAL WEIZMAN

Vortrag
Eyal Weizman: Forensic Architecture
Donnerstag, 11. November 2010, 19 Uhr, Aula

The principle of forensics assumes that events, as complex and multivalented as they might be, are registered within the material properties of objects, bodies or spaces – relational objects that we will refer to as “things”. The principle of forensics assumes two interrelated sets of spatial relations. The first is a relation between an event and the objects in which it is registered, and the second is a relation between the object and the forum that is assembled around it. Forensics is thus both the investigation of objects and the creation of forums.

Eyal Weizman is a writer and architect; director of the Centre for Research Architecture at Goldsmiths, University of London. Since 2007 he is a member of the architectural collective Decolonizing Architecture in Beit Sahour/Palestine which has received the 2010 Prince Claus Award for Architecture. His books include "The Lesser Evil" (Nottetempo, 2009, Verso Books forthcoming 2011), "Hollow Land" (Verso Books, 2007), "A Civilian Occupation" (Verso Books, 2003), the series "Territories", and many articles in journals, magazines and edited books. Weizman is a regular contributor and an editorial board member for several journals and magazines including Humanity, Cabinet and Inflexions. Weizman has curated the exhibition "Territories" at KW, and participated Numerous exhibitions in search as Manifesta 7 (2008) and Bozar in Brussels (2009).
