Enterprising research students at the University of Edinburgh have invited me to be a keynote speaker at a weekend conference they’re hosting this coming October.  I am honored! It coincides with the work of translating Flusser’s  Gesten: Versuch einer Phaenomenologie (Gestures: Attempt at a Phenomenology), Bollmann 1991.  I’m having a go at an essay that was added to the book — by Edith Flusser, I think — for the second edition in 1994. It’s called “Towards a General Theory of Gestures,” and it sketches in some of the possibilities, and reasons for making certain decisions about how to look at pretty much everything, and ourselves and other people in particular, as gestures.
