Les collectifs artistes comme hétérotopies organisationnelles : un modèle à suivre

Les collectifs artistes comme hétérotopies organisationnelles : un modèle à suivre ?

Jean-Louis Magakian, EM Lyon et David Vallat, Université Claude Bernard Lyon 1

Les milieux artistiques ont traditionnellement exploré des modes de sociabilité et de nouvelles pratiques collectives pour soutenir la création. Parmi ces pratiques les collectifs artistes sont des formes organisationnelles originales notamment car elles s’inscrivent dans des lieux physiques.

L’organisation matérielle objets-organisation-lieux interagit continuellement, entièrement tournée vers un impératif : l’expérience sensible. Comme le dit si justement Emanuele Coccia :

« Entre les objets et nous, il y a un lieu intermédiaire, dans le sein duquel l’objet devient sensible, se fait phainomenon » (« La vie sensible », 2013).

Michel Foucault nous montre comment comprendre l’usage des lieux comme espaces spécialement conçus par l’homme pour accomplir la spécificité de ses activités, notamment lorsque ces lieux sont habités d’une intention sociale comme l’école ou la maison … Read more

Why there will never be a robot-entrepreneur and why it’s important

Why there will never be a robot-entrepreneur and why it’s important

The debate is quite old. Machines, and then robots, have always brought fears and fantasies about unemployment and the brutal disappearance of skills and meaning.

With the rise of the so-called industry 4.0, fear is back. I believe that more than ever, it is a justified fear. Technology has never been more likely to replace human being in many activities. All intellectual and manual skills are involved. From taxi-drivers to traders or teachers, all professions are under the threat of new metallic and digital monsters. Even research and development seem to suffer from the dramatic increase of artificial intelligence, which for sure soon will also replace part of the invention activities… Journalists keep repeating a very sad prophecy: among half of the jobs we know would disappear in the coming years (see figure below).

White Paper (Alpha) in English is out

The English-Speaking version of RGCS White Paper (Alpha version) is now on line:

« RGCS White Paper Alpha version« 

This Alpha version offers a starting point and a vision for the elaboration of RGCS White Paper (see this document:  A process for RGCS White Paper).

Next versions will be less ‘academic’ and more focused on cases and propositions.

But RGCS is an academic network, and the starting point of its analysis of collaborative communities in the city is necessarily a little bit academic 🙂

Looking forward to your feedbacks (collaborativespaces@gmail.com)

Best regards,

The coordinators of RGCS
