Opening
bOre begins with a modest gesture: the act of making an opening. Originally a manufacturing operation that once defined machines and, overtime, inscribed itself into the standards that organise infrastructures and institutions. What began as a technical adjustment has become a language of order, shaping how spaces are built, how resources are channelled, and how legitimacy is framed.
Reimagining
This programme asks how such openings might be reimagined. If standards often impose uniformity, can they instead create spaces for resistance, plurality, and renewal? Revisiting fragments of industrial evolution, bOre consider how technical measures ripple outward–reshaping language, perception, and relations of production.
duān
Hosted by duān, a platform at the intersection of socio-ecological inquiry, emerging technologies, semantics research alongside of audiovisual practices. duān's ethos focus on the underlying structures–the hidden rules and infrastructures that quietly shape behaviour, perception, and possibility. Rather than producing fixed objects, duān creates openings between disciplines and cultural terrains, creating porous spaces where knowledge and sensibility can move in both directions.
