> The overall theme this year is the Radical and the Revolutionary.  
> What is the validity and usefulness of these concepts in terms of

> practice? Can they be reclaimed, rendered affirmative and  
> dissentious tools, and if so, how? What kind of histories can we  
> access and how do we access them? What strategies are ours to  
> employ? What forms of linkages and connections, what kinds of  
> networks and collaboration? This year the overall theme will be  
> engaged with from four perspectives each of which involved its own
