Richard de Boer’s Summary

I'm an independent researcher, editor and publicist based in Amsterdam. At De Balie, I make public programs dealing with democratic processes and civil rights in information society (infopolitics). I co-initiated and coordinated the two-day public conference Recalling RFID (Oct 2007). Also have a distinct concern for political and cultural issues in the Western Balkans (post-Yugoslav republics). Occasionally I work as photo editor for magazines.

As Bakhtin said, "discourse lives on the boundary between its own context and another, alien, context." Perhaps a key fascination in my work is exploring and negotiating discursive spaces, bringing together different, clashing languages, reconfiguring it as dialogue.
