Europe has recently experienced an unprecedented process of re-bordering and fortification. These political shifts have had a direct effect on space itself and have produced a number of spatial measures: border check-points, fences, detention camps. Aside from these, secondary and tertiary spaces are fundamental to the functioning of the border regime and contribute to the complex entanglement of border practices with our built environment. This seminar seeks to critically engage this spatial network. We will identify and track typologies, types and relations of spaces and work jointly on shared cartographies, that make visible entry and exit points, nodes and bifurcations, orders and entropy of the border rhizome. The goal of the seminar is to overcome linear narrative structures and map out the constant territorialization and deterritorialization of the border regime. Individual or biographical experiences of border encounters are welcome to be explored.
