It exemplifies the principle of methodological encorporation, drawing upon recent works and projects from arts, architecture, and community archiving, from South-Eastern European contexts, all dealing with the issue of societal transformation. At the core lies a critical assessment of epistemic functionalism, automatically searching for or applying rather fixed scopes, or functions, to any human activity observed.
