ACS SI: Schaarbeekse Taal

In the framework of the first ACS Summer Institute, hosted by the University of Ghent, Constant member Peter Westenberg will present the project Schaarbeekse Taal and discuss the working methods, based on documentation of past events and activities.

The three year project ’The Language of Schaarbeek’ collects words that have a special relationship with the Brussels neighborhood of Schaarbeek and its inhabitants. Berber, Brussels, Catalan, Greek, Polish, Spanish and many other immigrant languages are practiced alongside official languages French and Dutch.

Through artistic interventions, workshops, interviews and round table discussions this intercultural project maps words, phonetic spellings, text messaging abbreviations, acronyms, slam terms, rap language, anachronisms, jargon and slang in use on a particular territory. Verbal communication in this multicultural urban public space is enriched by the expressiveness of statements, accents, timbres, rhythms, dialects and subtexts. ’De Schaarbeekse Taal’ includes a database of audio recordings and regular radio broadcasts that are made to contextualize the collected words.

(about the ACS Summer Institute on Critical Literacies)
The traditional notions of literacy have been challenged by developments such as digitization, globalization and multiculturalism. During the Summer Institute we will question and discuss these challenges from a critical perspective, working at the intersection of cultural studies and education. We will expand the notion of a singular literacy to multiliteracies and focus on what this shift implies for media literacy, digital literacy, (cross)cultural literacy, academic literacy, corporal literacy, etc.

The ACS Summer Institute is organized by the research group Culture & Education (C&E) that is part of the Department of Educational Studies of Ghent University .

The Association of Cultural Studies is the premiere international association of cultural studies and hosts the biennial Crossroads in Cultural Studies Conference. Starting with Ghent in 2011, the ACS intends to host a biennial Summer Institute.

ACS SI: La langue schaerbeekoise

Dans le cadre du premier Institut d’Eté de l’Association of Cultural Studies (ACS), hébergé par l’Université de Gand, Peter Westenberg, membre de Constant, va présenter "La Langue Schaerbeekoise" et la méthodologie du projet sur la base de la documentation des activités actuelles et passées que celui-ci a généré.

Le projet de trois ans, "La Langue Schaerbeekoise", collecte les mots qui ont une relation particulière avec le quartier bruxellois et ses habitants. Berbère, bruxellois, catalan, grec, polonais, espagnol et de nombreuses autres langues d’immigration sont parlées en parallèle des langues officielles comme le français et le néerlandais.

A travers des interventions artistiques, des ateliers, des interviews et des tables de conversation, ce projet interculturel crée des liens entre des mots, des orthographies "phonétiques", des abréviations de type SMS, des acronymes, des termes de slam, le langage du rap, des anachronismes, le jargon et l’argot qui sont utilisés dans un certain territoire. La communication verbale dans cet espace public multiculturel est enrichie par l’expressivité physique, les accents, les timbres, les rythmes, les dialectes et les sous-entendus. "La Langue Schaerbeekoise" propose une base de données d’enregistrements audio et d’émissions radio régulières qui sont réalisés pour donner un contexte aux mots collectés.

La langue est l’anglais. Plus d’informations sur l’événement est donc aussi en anglais.
