ReKnot

Magazine by TAG: Hicham Khalidi, Karin Mientjes, and Peter Zuiderwijk

By publishing a magazine in the context of THE KNOT Hicham Khalidi, Peter Zuiderwijk and Karin Mientjes aim to reknot THE KNOT. In essence we want to ask the questions: how is THE KNOT perceived, what is its relevance, what is the result and how does all that relate to its context?

THE KNOT will colonize 3 locations in 3 different towns this summer. Our aim is to attend every city at the end of the month (last local location). Encounters and exchange will have taken place by then and individual (or collective) projects will have developed enough to be presented.

We want to make an inventory and reinterpret THE KNOT. How do ideas relate to each other and how do projects correlate with their surroundings? Through a series of interviews we want to stage a live editorial system. The messages we send out can be questioned and discussed by participants and visitors. Thus we want to become a part of the local process of encounter, exchange and experimentation. Only after our departure will we develop the final site-specific magazine. The magazines will probably be distributed in the next location or they will find their way back to the original location through the system of initial registration, they might also acquire an unexpected nomadic function in the public space.
