Theory Café #9: Disappearing Things

Hiding under a duvet, letting the ground swallow us up, or simply ghosting: sometimes we would rather disappear. This can be protective, or a political statement, but it can also perpetuate fear. What things would help us to vanish into thin air? From which of our worlds, consumption or social media, should we disappear? Where do we go if we are no longer in that world?

In the theory café we start off from the point of view of our own experiences and deepen them through short readings on theories, conversations and creative exercises.

The event will take place in the virtual booth on Gather Town. You will receive the link and password to access the session via e-mail on the day of the event.
