This year's students engaged in a collaborative experiment around the ideas percolating from our lab on Liminal Lives and Para-Sites, combining the diverse modes of expression the group has at its disposal and drawing on the evocative landscape in which they were dwelling - by sketching, collecting and recomposing audio, scavenging and disturbing waste, sewing, mapping, programming, acting, writing, photographing, filming, animating objects, etc.

Moving performatively, critically and collectively between physical and virtual spaces, audiovisual and multimedia formats, the low-tech and the high-tech, WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS aimed to interfere and disrupt habitual modes of framing, seeing and connecting the liminal lives that populate and define our contemporary situation.

We hoped in this way to carve out a shelter for contemporary humanities thought that, at the same time, is not a retreat into solipsism, but an untimely and provocative intervention: a para-site, in other words.
