Queering Damage
2020Queering Damage is a methodology (sort of) for engaging with the damages that patriarchocolonial technosciences, turbo-capitalism, and totalitarian informatics have inflicted on living and other modes of existence. Extending queer sensibilities concerned with individual and collective injury, the manual sets out to name, formulate and partially repair various types of intersecting damages, if possible and desired. Through fictional mathematics and practices of resistance, The Underground Division considers how damages might be understood differently. For the exhibition, the methodological operations of the manual are dispersed between the artworks, making space to formulate a queering damage analytics towards possible partial reparations of the damages presented... or not. The Underground Division invited transmediale to apply and interpret the methodology for abandon all hope ye who enter here. Find the full manual here.
