This year’s Joint Symposium (concept) at our International Research Training Group InterArt in Berlin (15th-17th of nov., 2012) among others scheduled the working group “ARCHIVES”. We discussed some aspects of Derrida’s Archive Fever in different contexts (mainly in the contexts of our own research) and tried to tie it all together in a performative presentation of the resulting archive. Thanks to Katharina Kim Alsen (who chaired the group), Sharmistha Saha, Anne Breimaier, Tiffany Page and Trine Friis Sørensen, who engaged in an animated discussion and contributed with very interesting texts, research projects and ideas.
