AFTER YEAR ZERO Geographies of Collaboration 1945
19.09 - 24.11.2013 | Haus der Kulturen der Welt, Berlin
www.hkw.de/en/afteryearzero

Recording of Fred Moten's contribution to "Geographies of Collaboration I. Writing History."

“Geographies of Collaboration” reflects the framework conditions of the new political order following the “catastrophe of civilization” that was World War Two. 


The image of the twentieth century is dominated by the historico-philosophically charged, bipolar confrontation between liberal universalism and socialist internationalism. The greater and ongoing challenge to the chronicling of history, however, is the revision of the modern era against the background of colonial history and the critique of what the European historical narrative has included and excluded. The first day of “Geographies of Collaboration” examines the fundamental role of Africa in the European construction of universal history, as well as the continuities at the nexus of colonial rule and fascism.

Fred Moten (Los Angeles) is a poet and student of the black radical tradition. He is author of In the Break: The Aesthetics of the Black Radical Tradition, Hughson’s Tavern, B. Jenkins, The Undercommons: Fugitive Planning and Black Study (with Stefano Harney), and The Feel Trio. He lives in Los Angeles and teaches at the University of California, Riverside.

Gilbert Simondon - On The Mode Of Existence Of Technical Objects

Philosophy of the Essay Film 
with Christa Blümlinger, Gertrud Koch, Esther Leslie; Moderation: Stewart Martin

What is an essay film or an installation essay? Though their formal elements have existed since the early years of film, it is only recently that these terms have come to function as generic labels with certain aesthetic and conceptual stances: poetically wrought language, self-reflexion, a sustained rumination on one issue, and movement across disciplinary confines. What can essay films and installation essays communicate to, and about, philosophy?
