Thinking About Feeling: Once more with\u2026<\/i><\/b>
We will discuss our recent book project,\u00a0Feelings of Structure: Explorations in Affect\u00a0<\/i>and our research-creation project and exhibition, Structures of Anticipation. The edited book addressed the built\u00a0environment as spatial attunements. The essays explored the affective consciousness of spatial form\/s that is at once social and personal \u2013 emergent and emerging and ever in process in an\u00a0\u2018interrelating continuity\u2019. How do spatial forms contribute to, as Susan Lepselter writes, an ethnography of emergent feeling? How do we feel these spaces and world them \u2013 taking worlding as a way of\u00a0apprehension and comprehension \u2013 giving it a structure that we make (non)sense of. What are the emergent feelings, strategies and practices that are integrated into our material and experiential\u00a0world? Reversing Raymond Williams\u2019 influential essay, \u201cStructures of Feeling\u201d, we ask how and in what way we could address the mixed experiences to which \u2018the fixed forms do not speak at all\u2019. We\u00a0felt, to capture the traces of the experiences, the reverse phrasing, \u201cfeelings of structure,\u201d was a more intriguing invitation to grasping the (un)\/knowable.
The project Structures of Anticipation emerged out of working on the book as well as other related individual projects. The theme \u201canticipation\u201d attended to the anxious unknowables of the times during\u00a0the Trump years and before the pandemic happened. The theme hinged on the “sensation” of anticipation \u2013 circulating forces that build up, the turning of the corner, hope, reverie or of impending\u00a0dread, anxiety, trepidation, as we refreshed our social media feed \u2013 and how it affected our daily material lives.\u00a0
