5 cut-ups and media-world methods
• 1. Praxis-based• 2. Place-based• 3. Vernacular-expressed• 4. Collaborative• 5. Self-reflexive and affect-rich
1. Praxis-based
Cut ups are for everyone. Anybody can make cut ups. It is experimental in the sense of being something to do. … The use of scissors renders the process explicit and subject to extension and variation. (William Burroughs)
2. Place-based
I use the concept of “Egyptian feeling” as a named, circulated and sticky emotion, where the cultural, political and biological aspects of emotions merge together. Anu
Laukkanen: “Hips Don’t Lie: Affective and Kinaesthetic Dance Ethnography,” Working With Affect in Feminist Readings, eds. Liljestrom and Paasonen (Routledge:
2010).
3. Vernacular-Expressed
What is the glue that inspires or captivates an audience to assemble linger, and act?
4. Collaborative
Feminist collectivity as the shadow archive of contemporary academic culture. Tweeted by @Aging SuperModel
So we wait for our bodies to appear, we wait in the gaps, or cuts, or silhouettes of time; we wait, we exist, and create. (Tweeted by @Komiksgrrrl)
5. Self-reflexive and affect-rich
I feel annoyed to be watching the clock to get my kid from daycare. I was so happy when you said you loved “The Argonauts,” and then squirmily delighted when you said smart generous things to me after I presented. Very sweaty most of today. I’m curious about everyone’s love lives, as always. (tweeted by Jenny Burman)
