Dating, speed-dating, matchmaking are parts of my ongoing investigations through the interdisciplinary paradigm of productive antagonisms (Latham and Tan 2016, a curatorial/pedagogical method to collide diverse and divergent bodies and bodies of thought to catalyse [difficult] dialogues), and being ill-disciplined (Tan and Asherson 2018, interdisciplinary conversation and/or collaboration + playful subversion of constructs of ‘illness’). In a world of fear, walls, closed borders and minds and siloed/protectionist approaches, this is about conversation and collaboration, through valuing and celebrating differences and trespassing boundaries (cultural, geopolitical, disciplinary and more).

Seeking collaborators/sponsors: I aim to curate a residency-cum-collaboration programme that will lead to an exhibition asking, ‘What Could A Neurodiversity-led 2050 Look Like?’ I want to matchmake unlikely pairs of neurodiverse artists and designers with scientists and technologists, and choreograph ways for them to work collaboratively towards the co-creation of new pilots and prototypes of apps, objects or experiences.
