<p>DiVersions is inspired by the software-practice of ‘versioning’, as a
way to experiment with online collections of cultural institutions. It
approaches these collections as potential sites for decolonial and
intersectional practice, that could and should allow for conflict,
invite collaboration, and make space for other narratives.
</p><p>DiVersions asks questions such as: How can different orders
coexist in online collections? In what way do we make room for material
and immaterial heritage of the future, for things that are felt to be
beyond the scope of museums and archives, or for other things that are
consciously being ignored? How can these digital environments allow us
to open up a discussion on relations between categorisation,
colonisation and heritage? How can online collections accommodate
radically different, and sometimes opposing perspectives?
</p><p>We organised the project around seven artistic experiments that
evolved in response to specific e-collections such as WikiMedia, the
Carmentis database from the Museum for Art and History and the website
of Werkplaats immaterieel erfgoed. Using a variety of artistic
strategies, the projects test out in practice how techniques and
technologies of networked collaboration might generate other
imaginations. The projects are collectively developed in dialogue with
each other and in conversation with partner institutions. DiVersions
unfolds in two subsequent public installations, first in De Pianofabriek
in Brussels and later in De Krook in Ghent. Each of the two versions is
accompanied by a version of a publication, a workshop and a public
discussion.
</p><p>With the neologism 'DiVersions' we wanted to allude to the
possibility that technologies of 'versioning' might foreground
divergent histories.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1">[1]</a></sup>
Version-control systems, Wikis, etherpads and other digital writing
tools save log files and so-called ‘diffs’ routinely, potentially
changing linear relations between original and copy, redefining
questions of authorship and the archive. Meticulously logged workflows
promise to make the process of shared editing transparent since any
action can be reversed or repeated at any time; errors or unwanted
inputs can be later corrected. Even if the conventional narrative of
'versioning' is one of streamlining collaboration and producing
consensus, these techniques and technologies inherently pay attention to
difference. In Dutch, this became 'di-versies' as a play on divergent
or diverse versions. Translated to English and French, DiVersions also
evokes 'diversity', a term that especially in institutional contexts
started to circulate as a blanket term for covering up issues of
inequality and oppression.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2">[2]</a></sup>. It is for this reason that we decided to explicitly articulate the project as a decolonial and intersectional practice.
</p><p>Framing DiVersions as both 'decolonial' and 'intersectional'
could appear as a contradictory gesture, if we consider that the
practice of constructing a (digital) collection is deeply entrenched in
colonial efforts to sort out and categorize the world, including humans.
DiVersions is consciously making this paradoxical move because it seems
more than necessary to imagine, without attempting to repair,
e-collections that can become self-reflexive and aware of the physical
and epistemic violence that powers them and keeps them in place.
Starting from software processes that make the multiplicity of versions
visible in the workings of a project or a process, DiVersions is an
attempt to take into account the persistent complexities of
human-to-human and human-to-machine relationships and the underlying
tensions and conflicts that result from it.
</p><p>In December 2016, when the first phase of DiVersions took place, the Museum of Tervuren was already closed for several years.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3">[3]</a></sup>
Three years later, just before relaunching the second phase of
DiVersions, the museum had finally re-opened. The renovation was claimed
to be a pivotal moment for the decolonisation of this institution, a
fundamental symbol of the Belgian colonial enterprise. The re-opening
prompted many heated debates on whether the museum did or did not
succeed in its endeavor but also on whether such an institution,
considering its inherent links with Belgian coloniality, could ever
claim such a process. Not that the decolonial discourse was ever absent
in Belgium, but it had not yet enjoyed the same mainstream platforms as
it had during these debates.
</p><p>The discussions surrounding the re-opening of the Museum of
Tervuren made us realise that the work of DiVersions might be more
urgent than we originally thought. Three years into the project, we are
only at the beginning of addressing large questions, such as the
implications of digital technologies on representation, collaboration
and access; the inherent problems of archiving and collecting; the
troubles of institutional normativity and the assumptions of homogeneous
identity that slip into cultural heritage policy and above all, how all
this plays out in the complex Belgian environment and its specific
colonial history.
</p><p>The construction of physical and digital repositories is a
consequence of the social and symbolic capital that cultural heritage
represents.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4">[4]</a></sup>
This value necessitates institutionalized archives, the keeping of
digital/physical documents, and the establishment of codified practices
that allow institutions to maintain their authority through
classification and mediation. This mutual confirmation of what counts as
heritage, as identity, as history and as beneficial future, constructs
specific narratives that usually leave little room for a critique.
However, possibilities opens up for the practice of archiving cultural
artifacts, especially in a digital context, as it can become a tool of
resistance against oppression and annihilation.
</p><p>To arrive at this potential is easier said than done as digital
spaces themselves are permeated by seemingly neutral criteria,
templates, standards, and so on. For example, database technologies
routinely affirm the authority of certain kind of experts and not
others; algorithms corroborate gender cliches and Wikipedia has
surprisingly little space for deviating world views. DiVersions
therefore not only attends to the digital items brought together in
e-collections, but also to the way metadata, software packages and web
technologies prevent or provide space for Di-Versions.
</p><p>Digital collections can technically be copied, repeated,
downloaded, and used in many contexts at once. It means that the inertia
of conventional arrangements operates differently; the physical
vulnerability, material and historical value of heritage objects can not
be used as an argument. DiVersions wants to actively explore the
potential of digital collections to support a lively decolonial and
intersectional discourse and the opening up of categories. DiVersions
therefore experiments with digitized and digital heritage as a way to
try out divergent forms of historiography, for telling untold stories
and to open up wide the possibilities of conceptual de- and
reconstruction. Even if these experiments do not definitively transform
the symbolic order, it at least makes space for fantasies of it.
</p><p>DiVersions continues some of the threads in Constant's long
commitment to the exploration of institutional and archival technologies
from a feminist perspective. Multi-year investigations such as <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://activearchives.org/">Active Archives</a>, <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.mondotheque.be/">Mondotheque</a> and <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://sicv.activearchives.org/">Scandinavian Institute for Computational Vandalism</a>
provided platforms for different constellations of artist-researchers
to come to terms with the power-relations, oppressions and projections
at work in the (digital) archive. As DiVersions shows, such work is
never finished and continues to invite reflection, critique and new
attempts. We need to try again.
</p><p>
This publication accompanies the first public unfolding of DiVersions.
The texts included in this volume, and the documented projects each in
their way resist simplification and homogenization. They pay attention
to the historicity and performativity of archives and work with their
contradictions rather than against them. DiVersions is a persistent
attempt to collaboratively rethink the narratives built in digital
collections, and to play with and within their gaps.</p><div class="mw-references-wrap"><ol class="references">
