Summary:

"A glossary can only display one possible set of meanings, responding to a given context. It is also a writing form in itself, a mode of story-telling, suggesting once more a troubled relationship to the contingent truths that words carry along. This form serves as a repository of traces, documents and conversations generated over the course of the affiliation. It brings up more questions than it answers. It is produced with several thinkers and artists in mind: our conversation with Ariella Aisha Azoulay was seminal to the rest, although our readings of scholars Saidiya Hartman and Eve Tuck, and reminiscences of Dead French Philosophers theorists of history like Michel Foucault, were of company. The signs illustrating this glossary are adapted from a series of visual scores conceived by artist Anca Benera during the workshop How (Not) to Disappear in Translation; Listen to the eyes; Distort; Get Lost in translation (marker pen on A4 paper, 2023). They propose a graphic interpretation of these scores."-- provided by distributor.
