epistemic thing – application
When people (e.g. youth) meet informally in the public space, they physically occupy this space. This appropriation is visible for others and has an influence on them, especially on people, who would potentially use this space too. Or on people, who see kind of a threat in either the gathering of a group of (young)…

crossmapping
Crossmapping superimposes item A onto item B and item B onto item A, revealing a bidirectional relationship between the two items. These “items” can be virtually anything: works from different disciplines (transmedial), works from the same disciplines and across different time periods (transhistorical), ecosystems across different continents (transpatial), people from different cultures (transcultural), etc. By…

traveling concepts
Nomadic concepts – also and perhaps better known as “travelling concepts” – are a heuristic tool and analytical practice for communicating across disciplinary, professional and cultural boundaries through discussing and opposing different understandings and uses of concepts such as identity, space or emotion. It could thus also be called a translation tool. It was first…

experimental system
Experimental system is the small functional part of a research. The aim of having it is to answer specific questions related to the research. Although it brings answers, it asks also new questions and therefore they causes an ‘inconcludable game’. It is also mentioned that an experiment must always give an undiscovered outcome or something…

hybrid fora
The concept of hybrid forums is closely linked to the theory of the third space by Homi K. Bhabha. In this theory, Bhabha designs the third space as a place of constant exchange and negotiation of cultural phenomena. Thus, the attempt to interpret cultural identity becomes an endless transformative process that leads to the dissolution…

transaction spaces
‘Practiced places’ (which can be fluid) where different knowledge producers come together. Ideally, these must be “safe spaces,” which are shared, open, autonomous, dynamic, reflective, and allow room for unpredictability.

trading zones
According to Galison, “Two groups can agree on rules of exchange even if they ascribe utterly different significance to the objects being exchanged; they may even disagree on the meaning of the exchange process itself. Nonetheless, the trading partners can hammer out a local coordination, despite vast global differences. In an even more sophisticated way,…
