    Contemporary coding of a street culture
    (Hochschule für Gestaltung und Kunst Basel FHNW, 2023) Palluce, Jeremy; Morger, Priska; Wiesel, Jörg; Salner, Wally
    Jeremy Palucce works with the goal to embody an idea that overcomes materiality and can therefore only be fully understood by human emotions. He is active in three fields of interest: The visual art world, the fashion world and the music world. Those worlds are perceived in the same three aspects, the visual, the musical and the emotional aspect. The exhibition shows a sound installation with adlibs from 15 musicians, 9 advertisement posters with spray-painted brand names on it and a video with the artist's grandmother's voice talking about love. “FOR MY THESIS I WANT TO RESEARCH CODES, PRINCIPLES AND IDEAS OF A CULTURE THAT RAISED ME. IT IS ABOUT TODAY'S FORMS OF BEHAVIOR AND EXPRESSION, AS WELL AS PRINCIPLES AND IDEAS AND CODES THAT SHAPE THE CULTURE I LIVE IN. HIPHOP IS A CULTURE THAT IN AN IDEAL WAY LIVES FROM THE REFLECTION OF THE PRESENT AND IS THEREFORE, LIKE EVERYTHING HAPPENING IN THE WORLD, A WITNESS OF A CERTAIN MOMENT IN WORLD HISTORY.”

    The gustatory-olfactory staging of art
    (Hochschule für Gestaltung und Kunst Basel FHNW, 2023) Elsner, Zoë; Wenger, Andreas; Scheel, Ruth; Ehleiter, Martina
    My master's thesis is dedicated to the gustatory-olfactory staging of art. It deals with the sensory presentation of art and tries to find an extension of the traditional art presentation. In doing so, the attention is directed from the visual-verbal presentation to a presentation that appeals to all senses, emphasizing the senses of taste and smell. I created a 7-course menu that was put together in relation to the art-inspired themes. I also designed and produced a water lily service made of porcelain. I have spanned a dramaturgical arc and an overall scenographic concept all inspired by the painting ""Le Bassin Aux Nymphéas"" by Claude Monet. "Le Bassin Aux Nymphéas, the famous water lily pond of the impressionist Claude Monet, becomes the main protagonist of the gustatory-olfactory art experience. Seven courses are dedicated solely to the painting and open up a wide variety of themes over the course of the dinner.”

    Letter from the editors: Encounter I
    (Continent, 2012) Allen, Jamie; Boshears, Paul; Jenkins, Nico
    Since we last checked-in with you, dear readers, there has been a tremendous amount of activity among the continent. crew. In September, we joined the Editors of Speculations at the University of Basel to discuss the aesthetics of para- academic publishing during the Aesthetics in the 21st Century conference. Just the following weekend, we were on the campus of Northeastern University in Boston, to discuss similar matters during the Biennial Meeting of the Babel Working Group. An inspiring set of discussions, and some meetings with friends we'd only theretofore encountered through somewhat less fleshy networks and communiques.

    Letter from the editors: Fulgurite
    (Continent, 2014) Allen, Jamie; Boshears, Paul; Linder, Isaac
    As Gadamer reflects in The Beginning of Knowledge, "Anyone who has ever been a guest in Heidegger's hut in Todtnauberg [to be so lucky!] recalls the saying scratched into a piece of bark and placed above the lintel: ta de panta oiakizei keraunos; 'Lightning steers all' (Heraclitus, Fragment 64)." Fulgurites, sometimes referred to as petrified lightning, are the evidentiary traces of lightning strikes left as mineraloid debris on beaches, or soil, where the strike has occurred with a temperature of at least 1,800 °C (3,270 °F). Today, as markets crash at speeds faster than human thought, Quentin Meillassoux argues that the laws of nature must be considered to be able to change at a moment's notice. As fulgurites are formed in a second's time, like an error in a spreadsheet left to our retrospective perplexity...

    Letter from the editors: Pitch Drop
    (Continent, 2015) Allen, Jamie; Boshears, Paul; Abell, Marin
    In the American vernacular of the 1990s, people actually used to say that things “rocked.” “That rocks!” we’d say. The ‘we’ of our mostly 1990s teenagehoods could never have imagined that 20-something years later, a rather strange un-ironic interest in the literal referent of a pretty stupid exuberant rejoinder would arise. And yet, here we are, and here we go.

    Letter from the editors: Intangible architectures
    (Continent, 2015) Allen, Jamie; Boshears, Paul; Khaikin, Lital; Bernico, Matt
    This issue of continent. deals with the theme of intangible architectures. While in keeping with the theoretical and experimental nature of previous issues, this release intends a balance with an urgent grounding in current events, political schemas and areas of research that demand broadened dialogue. An underlying conversation represents some response to the tension that is enabled through systems that shape experience, behaviour and meaning – examining the imprints and traces that are left on our beings by these forms.

    Letter from the editors: Lost & Found
    (Continent, 2016) Bruder, Johannes; Gerloff, Felix; Allen, Jamie
    This issue was found in the lost conversations of continent.’s Jamie Allen and guest editors Johannes Bruder and Felix Gerloff. It is the crystallization of interests in the empirical, in notions of ‘evidence’, and the act of ‘returning’ something from a site of investigation. Developed through the Swiss National Science Foundation project Machine Love?[1], a project by researchers from the Institute of Experimental Design and Media Cultures at the Academy of Art and Design FHNW[2] (Claudia Mareis, Johannes Bruder and Felix Gerloff), these articles and artefacts stem in part from a workshop (All Eyes on Method in Basel on the 4th and 5th of June 2015) attended by contributing authors Sarah Benhaïm, Hannes Krämer, Luis-Manuel Garcia, Priska Gisler and Stefan Solleder. We also sought to expand the constituency of this continent. issue through a discussion of the role that media artefacts and material objects play in empirical research more generally. We have reached out to thinkers and doers who have developed ways of productively navigating the ambiguities of losing and finding, forgetting and remembering, capturing and deleting. Works by Geraldine Juarez, Mara Mills, Verena Paravel and Lucien Castaing-Taylor with a response by Nina Jäger and Bronwyn Lay, Natasha Schüll, and the Times of Waste research team further elaborate the thematic of ‘Lost & Found’ for this issue. We (re)present here attempts to (re)create experience, waving our flag of surrender at a world that is forever slipping through our fingers.

    Letter from the editors: Arrete
    (Continent, 2011) Allen, Jamie; Jenkins, Nico; Boshears, Paul
    We here at continent. gratefully share with you the fourth issue of our first volume. As 2011 draws to a close, we've finished up our first of what promises to be many years building and collecting manifestations of thought in its many forms. Guiding our thinking in this issue is the term arête. A thin sharp line, a lateral peak which separates valleys, ribs of sifted rock made mounds. With one stutter, the term becomes areté, a form of virtue, of goodness. Another stuttering, and we hear the French arreter—to stop. All of our stuttering is perhaps a form of nervous anticipation; a call for rest as well as an echo for change. For this December issue, we've drawn out these stutters: the solid fluidity of geology; the virtuous skill of craft; the possibility of a repose. Among many other givings in continent.1.4, we bring you Alain Badiou's hopes for neg through his interview with John Van Houdt, and John A. Sweeney's veiling and unveiling of politics in the pit-stop urban space.

    Letter from the editors: Moraine
    (Continent, 2011) Allen, Jamie; Boshears, Paul; Jenkins, Nico
    In this issue of continent., which takes as its theme the idea of the moraine, or that which is left behind, we attempt to think, and look beyond that horizon of the possible cataclysm, not in naive ways of hope and gleeful sounds, but in an attempt to present different directions in thought and looking and hearing. Beyond the cataclysm, or within it—or even, precisely anterior to it (anterior to an event not yet happened)—there are new ways of thinking “beyond” already becoming apparent. These ideas are speculative, in a sense irresponsible: Graham Harman writes about Quentin Meillassoux’s God who does not exist now, but may do so in the future while Paul Ennis describes the speculative line backwards to Kant’s distinction between phenomena and noumena. Michael O'Rourke assesses the future of Queer Theory and we are compelled to ask if queer theory is a theory of everything. Karen Spaceinvaders “maps” the brain through sound leaving us to wonder where is the mind, while Phillip Stearns, as though echoing Spaceinvaders’ work, remaps digital photography, creating images from the stray electrical currents in the apparatus. In fiction, Ben Segal gathers the blurbs of the books yet possible. And there is more.

    Letter from the editors: Firn
    (Continent, 2012) Allen, Jamie; Boshears, Paul; Jenkins, Nico
    For this, our sixth issue, we offer firn as our constellating theme. From the Old High German firni, meaning “old” and related to the Swedish forn connoting “former,” firn is the term used to indicate snow that has survived the summer months. Firn is rounded, well­bonded snow that, like continent., has existed for more than one year and has a density greater than one would expect from snow pack. Firn snow is a moment between glacial ice and the wet snow that packs. The material recrystallizes, and affirms its surface tensions and as it becomes impermeable to moisture, the transition to glacial ice is consummated. We again have elected to emphasize a term that translates the passage of time into the spatialization of time.
