About- Concept Work
ARC is beginning a new project on concept work, which will be housed on blog software. Our hope is that it can function as a new kind of space for the production of collaborative work.
The Concept Work Blog will focus on how concept work fits in to a broader approach to inquiry that is being developed in ARC. To some extent, exchanges on this topic have taken place on existing blogs, particularly on the Biopower and the Contemporary blog, which has been the site of extensive exchanges on What is a problematization? and on Dewey and Latour. Our hope is that by creating a space specifically for concept work, and limiting posts to extended discussions, that we will be able to produce a series of such substantial exchanges in a disciplined fashion, and that these can be captured and added to the exchange series in ARC’s document repository.
In the initial phase, the blog will be edited and moderated by Tobias Rees, who will also propose the first series of topics.
