Sidsel Meineche Hanson & Transmission Committee

Hanson exhibited a new body of work and worked alongside the Transmission committee in the organisation and delivery of a series of talks and seminars.

This discursive part of the project looked at ways for Transmission to "institute otherwise" - a phrase borrowed from Maria Hlavajova to describe alternative practices of organisation and instituting in the current phase of economic and cultural interregnum. Largely informed by the theory and practice of Hlavajova, Transmission and Hanson are attempting to shift their emphasis from institutional critique to proposition, from strategies of resistance to counter-conducts, and to find new ways of operating for and with, rather than against and in spite of.
