A symposium, co-hosted by the Center for Transformative Media, Parsons School for Design and punctum books, that features speakers who are working to foster and enact speculative, avant-garde scholarly praxes that resist the business-as-usual of the Public Research Institution, the Digital Humanities, Academic Publishing, Neoliberal Capital, and the like, in order to reinvigorate the question of intellectual creation outside of its intensive management as property within the contemporary university. Speakers have been selected because of the ways in which their work productively emerges at the intersections between the Institution/University, the so-called Street/Outside, the Studio/Workshop, the Gallery/Museum, etc.
