MELT’s interactive installation unfolds possibilities for lovingly engaging the knowledges of Trans* and autistic people when it comes to data about our lives. As NRW media arts fellows, MELT spent one semester at the University of Cologne and collaborated with Konstanze Schütze. During this time MELT held three workshops with Trans* and disabled participants on the topic of data for Trans* and disabled lives.
Counting Feelings unseats data practices that disembody and disconnect from the people who any data is about. Moving from a politics that asserts ’nothing about us without us‘ the works in this installation celebrate Trans* and autistic authorship, embodied data practices and dreaming. Following practices that focus on embodiment, MELT engages the senses throughout the exhibition space. Modifications of sensory inputs like light, touch, weight, reading and play permeate the works in the space and offer practices of rest, touch and connectivity over time as modes of approaching the exhibition.
During the opening there will be time to experience the exhibition and to meet MELT (Ren Loren Britton & Iz Paehr).
