What is the space of critical dialogue – metaphorically, and literally? Phonemes and vibrations and gestures? The materiality and sociality of air, of breath, of mouth, of tongue, of body, of hands, of signs, of smiles, of utterance, of noises, of glances, of blinks, of walls, of chairs, of audience, of fans, of interviews, of motions, of walking, of movements, of meaning, of value, of reciprocity, of names, of in-common, of translation, of biographies, of lost futures, of desire, of I’m sorry, of can you repeat that, of I understand, of I know what you mean, and of, and of, and of.

Within this and of, and of, and of that expands with each breath, this 2-day workshop explores what might be at stake for research within and across art, design, architecture, and the humanities in its relation to critical (spatial) dialogues.
