Lernziele / Kompetenzen
  • Getting acquainted with writing experiments in theory, art, and literature.
  • Distinguishing different forms of writing and modes of enunciation in texts.
  • Advancing in your experimental writing practice.
InhalteThe module will center on experiments in writing that go beyond classical academic and journalistic forms of text production. On the basis of discussing diverse ways of writing in art, theory, and literature, it will focus on the participants' existing and developing writing practices, including writing exercises (in English or German) and in-depth-feedback.
While scholarly writing gets striated in the academic publication apparatus, which in all its standardizations and hierarchizing becomes its own gravedigger, and, at the same time, writing in corporate social media serves its bubbles in an errant, short-winded, and querulous manner, the seminar will discuss writing as a complex and constant experimentation with the forms of the text, its modes of enunciation, and its assemblages of publication.
