ICGS 2023: Practices - A Love Story (Or Send Us Your Abstracts for ICGS 2023)

Can a practice be performed? How does one embody and perform work, mappings, or artistic encounters?

Rather than us telling you, why not tell us how you’d go about this narrative like when you tell a story, sing a song, recite a pledge of allegiance, perform a dance, recall a dream, or when enacting a daily routine.

For Filipino mapping practices in the archipelago, describing the world is  performative, enacted and creative. There are various ways to describe and portray what is static and mobile in our worlds. Like indigenous mapping, the storytelling of worlds can be danced, sung, and performed in an endlessly looping wheel of multiplicities that bring together bodies and landscapes, emotions and places, and self, collectivities and territories.

So whether your story infuses Judith Butler’s performativities or Isabelle Stengers’ ecology of practice, or Taylor Swift’s brand of folklore, or none of the above, send them to us. The deadline is 6th of November. Submit your abstract through this link:  https://bit.ly/ICGS2023Abstracts
