\nDouble Double. A Pop-up Critique of Visual Economy is a practice-bas
ed research project developed as a memory game with 22 non-identical pairs
from a delirious variety all across history of visual culture\, publishin
g\, design\, and architecture.\n

\n If modernity is one thing\,
it is divisiveness. Identity as we know it emerges from this experience\,
from the complex dynamic of domination and liberation and the struggle of
who-gets-what. While “we all have become cameras” (Deborah Levy)\, th
e game with doubles plays with this complexity. Along the development of t
he terms “double image” and “visual economy”\, Double Double explo
res the social\, political\, and material dimensions of image production a
nd consumption.\n
\n
\n Conceived as a podium event\, the project
proposes an experimental\, collective mode of research into the politics o
f representation. The form of the game addresses and lays out the topic no
n-synthetically\, non-conclusively\, as an easy-to-access jumping board fo
r spontaneous personal association\, where even if you loose\, you win.&nb

The workshop is part of Non-Public Publics\, a series of even ts organized by Make/Sense Research and the Institute Experimental Design and Media Cultures (IXDM) at FHNW Basel\, and is embedded in the program o f the MESH festival 2026. \;
