conversation with translator Jennifer Hayashida, curator Nkule

Snelting attempt to rethink translation and citation
as dispersed economies of re-use. Feeding, digesting, excreting,
negotiating and transforming – citation and translation are
knowledge ecologies where authorship is distributed, because a
multiplicity of agents are at work to create a nutrient-rich
milieu. With the help of two practice examples, we want to ask:
what would be the <a

an artistic research project by Eva Weinmayr and Femke Snelting,
that aims to develop a politics of re-use that acknowledges the
tensions and overlaps between feminist methodologies, decolonial
knowledge practices and principles of open access. It is a
collaboration between HDK-Valand, Academy of Art and Design,
Göteborg, the <a href="https://postdigitalcultures.org/"
target="_blank">Centre for Postdigital Cultures</a>, Coventry
University (UK) and <a href="https://constantvzw.org/site/"

association active in the fields of art, feminism, media and
technology in Brussels (BE). It is funded by the Swedish
