"What Knots Knot Knots" is an invitation to think about the ways in which knotting and unknotting are active practices that build and shape creative research, revealing attachments between/with materiality, epistemologies, ecologies and socio-political affinities and tensions. Thinking about Andean khipus (lengths of knotted fibre) as a record keeping device and a form of writing, we will consider knots as keepers of memory, points of contact and entanglement, and sites for the thickening of attachments towards world-building. Through talks, reading, performance, video, discussion and sound contibutions, participants will consider Haraway's entreaty that "it matters...what knots knot knots."
