TIJD / TIME

This series explores the effects of time (and the pressure of time) on making. How do we ensure that making does not increasingly fall prey to the laws of capitalization? Can we make time for not-knowing as a productive force? In what ways can we resist, make activist time, break through what we maintain together? Can time be a creative tool?
