EXXXO: A XENO-COMMUNITY?
with a sound performance by Hippolyte Godest, followed by performative readings by Luca Fedele, Naomi Collier Broms and Jessica Tille, Marianne Theunissen, Michał Dawid and Tom Dulou
Thursday October 19, 8pm
“Exxxo: A Xeno-Community?” aims to generate an unspecified space where various feelings of alienation could collide. The publication temporarily freezes the processes of collective imagining guided by the xenofeminist idea of alienation as a labour of freedom’s construction. The book serves as a speculative archive of events that could have possibly happened in Exxxo. It is also an anthology of xeno-poetry, where the use of language is treated as a material practice allowing for collaborative worlding. Last but not least, it is a never-finishing exercise of embracing the strangeness of existing together.
Contributions by Michał Dawid, Marianne Theunissen, Tom Dulou, Luca Fedele, Jessica Tille, Abel Aben, Marie Skousen, Naomi Collier Broms, Anna Frijstein. Edited by Marianne Theunissen, Michał Dawid and Tom Dulou, and designed by Klara Debeljak.
