Platforms

 

 

View from Ville Nouvelle in Fez

 

 

The platforms consist of a synthetically approach of the archive from which emerged 3 main topics. Those topics are: temporality, picture of the city and social space.

This first synthesis of the multidimensional data creates an overview approach from above. I compare this deconstruction of the archive to a scalpel manipulated by a surgeon in an effort to understand the nature of the body (here corpus) one will afterwards works on.

The difference between the platforms and the pillars is that the archive is treated as an object under the hands of the researcher, while the same archive is treated as communicative subject in relation to an asking (¬spørrende) researcher. In other words I had to get to know my material in order to be able to interrogate it.
