The purpose of the speed-dating session is for participant to take on the character of one of the authors in order to consider the “hereness and the whoness of the texts. And trough the characters and their texts analyse the paper about the Bergamo renovation project, by Burroughs.
Within this concept we wish to provide a one-on-one session trough which the characters points of view on flirtation as a method in critical research, the reparative act of “soft knowledge” as well as the compassionate aesthetics of Camp – can be exchanged and interact in a relaxed, open – yet, focused setting.
All speed-date participants are requested to take on one of the character of Gavin, Ewe or Susan and post formulate questions to bring to the speed-dating session. See some examples below:
