Artist Sally Chessell in conversation with Elia Bosshard and Ira Ferris, on the making of their book SPACE BODY HABIT, and the themes explored in it. Held at Frontyard (Sydney) on 12th December 2021. 

SPACE BODY HABIT explores the many ways we perceive, or fail to perceive spaces, and offers a number of phenomenologically-driven exercises designed to enhance our awareness of space and its impact on our day-to-day life. For more about the book see this page: https://www.artemisprojects.com.au/space-body-habit/ira-ferris-elia-bosshard

Our place of gathering - Frontyard - is on the Gadigal and Wangal land of the Eora nation. We pay our respect to the ongoing custodians, elders past, present, and emerging. 

Thank you to all those who have engaged with the book in some capacity. This is an unfinished work, our thoughts fluid and left open; hopefully the beginning of many more conversations. Feel free to write to us on your experiences with the book, and the questions it raises, on spacebodyhabit@gmail.com

SPACE BODY HABIT Book Launch Conversation with Sally Chessell

Creating and maintaining an inclusive environment that makes anyone feel welcome requires conscious and consistent effort. Whether it’s presentation, operation, or curation—incorporating your team’s voices in a healthy and organic manner as a business practice requires thinking outside the box.

In this episode of the Rosenfeld Review, you’ll hear from Danielle Barnes, CEO of Women Talk Design, as she and Lou discuss the fundamentals of designing meetings and conference presentations that are more inclusive.

Key points Danielle and Lou address include:

• Remolding non-inclusive systems to which women and non-binary folks are forced to adapt;
• Assigning rotating facilitator roles, and how those roles can promote inclusivity;
• How truly “listening” to those who are speaking can give facilitators the insights they need to curate a fantastic meeting;
• Raising awareness for the consequences of being talked over, and how to drive safety and accessibility in meetings for team members; and
• Tips to improve your natural stage presence when giving a talk.

You’ll also hear insights in how to create more inclusive environments by empowering those whose voices are not heard—and how safe spaces, when done right, help make this happen.

After the 2011 Arab spring in Tunisia, Emna Mizouni and her team realised that there was little to no information about the rich culture and heritage of their country, and that needed fixing.

Emna’s love for technology, history and monuments is what birthed Carthagina, an organisation that works to document Tunisian history and heritage for future generations, as well as promote that rich Tunisian culture worldwide. 

 She is also the co-founder of Digital Citizenship, an initiative and consultancy for the digital inclusion of women and girls.

Emna is an advocate for open culture and open knowledge, a community leader in the Wikimedia Movement globally.

She is well known for her contributions to several international entities focusing on human rights and technology, and we are honoured to have her as a guest on Inspiring Open.

The trio behind our party of the year discuss creating space for the FLINTA community, their most outrageous live performances and more.
Resident Advisor is wrapping up the year, and alongside our best-of-2024 records and tracks lists comes our favourite party: Barcelona-based platform MARICAS. The self-described "loving and pervy LGBTQIA+ techno collective" started in 2018 when ISAbella, Eloisa Blitzer and graphic designer Gina Guasch decided it was time to create a fun space for queer women and nonbinary people in their city. Since then, MARICAS has become a celebrated international series, revealing in its ascent how much of the techno scene—even in its queerest corners—continues to cater to men.
In this RA Exchange, the trio talk about their humble origins as well as the ongoing obstacles they face in promoting the party in the face of discrimination. Performance plays an important role in their events, and they take an entertaining trip down memory lane, discussing some of the most outlandish theatrics and installations that have made it onto their dance floors: a Catholic confessional booth where the priest gave kisses, a livestreamed toilet stall where people undressed in front of the camera and a make-out session from figures covered in paint. Underneath the showmanship, however, is an unwritten code of respect and acceptance that extends far beyond the rave—their mission is to transform the social taboo surrounding difference into a positive force in our world. Listen to the episode in full.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 104

"Safe spaces" on college campuses are not new. In fact, they're now a very old, very tired topic. So is all of the "Coddling of the American Mind" (https://amzn.to/3O6nEtl) infantilization like we recently saw on campuses across America in the wake of President Trump's second electoral victory. The thing is, these obviously pathetic phenomena serve an educational purpose. That is, they're pedagogical. Their real purpose is to convince young minds that it is traumatic when politics don't go Left and then to "structure the environment to resolve that [trauma] productively" for Woke causes. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay explains the twisted pedagogical purpose of safe spaces, coloring books, puppies, and bubbles as a response to politics that rejects Marxism. Join him for an important lesson.
