Abstract
Abstract
The article takes the form of a travelogue, embodying a method of geographically and affectively situated research and writing. It is an episode of documentation of a long-term journey of 'inadequate' study focusing on affect and theory, affect and writing, affect and place (affect and displacement). Convoking the notion of 'permeable ways of being' (Brennan, 2004), the text generates a half-theoretical, half-fictional discursive movement that doesn't go straight, reporting and reflecting on a recent collective artistic residency meant to study forms of life; on the very process of writing as cross-temporal and cross-geographical; on daily economies of affect that glide into affect morals.
