KOKO – The Next Generation Journal is a new initiate by the Shared Campus to explore new formats and approaches to online academic publishing. KOKO is dedicated to the investigation of theories and practices of alternative knowledge systems that explore the relations between media and expression, time and space. To launch our first KOKO Space – KOKO’s equivalent to a “journal volume” – we would like to invite you to the following event.
Text and image converge in diagrams; diagrams operate beyond the opposition between text and image. The KOKO Webinar on Text-Image Parergon invites artists, designers and theoreticians to discuss the hidden dimensions of this thesis. Starting point for the discussions are contributions to the KOKO Space Text-Image Parergon. This online space is generated by a confluence of social media posts, their reflections by review processes and supplemented by commissioned contributions and driven by an interest in image based forms of artistic and academic discourse.
