INTIMATE MONUMENTS: call for participants

Call for participants: for a digital, textual, participatory map-making initiative

INTIMATE MONUMENTS

We arrive at MONUMENT from the Latin monēre, "to remind," its roots indicating the centrality of the mind in projects of memorialization. A collaborative project of memory and its sites, material and mental, INTIMATE MONUMENTS is seeking to weave the intimate into a landscape of commemoration. 

How can intimacy––ever individual––speak collectively?

Participants will be asked to submit textual responses to a series of questions. All responses will be recorded anonymously, so as to center the collective voice.

 

Deadline to submit: 11/30
