MARGINAL NOTES can be read as notes coming from the margins (geographically, socially, institutionally, chronologically) but also as marginalia, notes made on the margins of a page (of a book, document, journal). Referring to close reading, note taking, learning, highlighting, processes of understanding and critical engagement. In whichever context, on the margins is always a relative concept that shifts and moves, puts pressure on centres by forming altering gravitating powers from aside or below — and might unlock potential from present pasts. We are not fixed in time.

abstract
"Marginal Notes" can be read as notes coming from the margins (geographically, socially, institutionally, historically) but also as marginalia, notes made on the margins of a page (of a book, document, journal), Referring to close reading, note taking, learning, highlighting, processes of understanding and critical engagement. In whichever context, “on the margins” is always a relative concept that shifts and moves in relation to what is considered central and can form an altering power from aside or below. Marginal Notes starts to take shape by looking at collective (innovative) and cooperative forms of organising, and an understanding of sustainable entrepreneurship that develops out of needs, on the margins, and creates something new by recombining and repurposing. We apply the same approach to the proposed artistic research. Transposing and assembling as an editing method (spatial, audio-visual and text-based) that shifts and creates relations/conversations and geo-temporal analogies.
