Decolonizing South East Asian Sound Archives

DeCoSEAS是一个跨国的NL-FR-UK研究项目，重新谈判对遗产策展的既定理解。一个经验丰富的跨学科团队在欧洲开辟了三个独特的收藏，其中包括来自东南亚（SEA）的极其罕见的音乐和声音，这些音乐和声音在质量，数量和多样性方面享誉全球，但几乎无法获得。DeCoSEAS为东南亚利益相关者提供物理访问（WP 1），为全球学者，艺术家和利益相关者提供在线访问（WP 2），为东南亚利益相关者提供有关遗产策展的出版渠道（WP 3），为全球文化消费者提供外展项目（WP 4）。审问档案的殖民遗产，2.构想一个新的数字策展框架。将有关遗产策展的出版和编辑机构转移给遗产利益相关者;使策展实践民主化。这些目标构成了DeCoSEAS所设想的遗产策展的非殖民化，它敏锐地回应了当前公众和学术界关于去殖民化和遗产归还的辩论。该项目是这一愿景的试点研究，采用了一个知识链，有三个形成的方向点：改善遗产的可获得性，将代理权转移给遗产的利益相关者，以及关于遗产策展的对话多样化。DeCoSEAS采用了一种范式转变的方法论方法，专注于倾听和倾听作为知识形成的对话模式。它补充了观看和阅读作为单一客观化模式的传统学术能力。DeCoSEAS致力于通过同时关注多个，有时间限制和错综复杂的声音（过去记录的和今天来自东南亚合作伙伴的声音），将迄今为止在现有的关于战争的话语中尚未听到的声音，立场和解释纳入其中。通过这些行动计划，DeCoSEASaims旨在为遗产管理和参与提供新的见解和新的实践。

DeCoSEAS is a transnational NL-FR-UK research project that renegotiates established understandingsof heritage curation. An experienced, cross-disciplinary team opens up three unique collections,located in Europe, with extremely rare music and sound from Southeast Asia (SEA), that haveworldwide fame in terms of their quality, quantity and diversity, but are barely accessible. DeCoSEASfacilitates:physical access for SE Asian stakeholders (WP1),online access for scholars, artists and stakeholders worldwide (WP2),publication channels about heritage curation for SE Asian stakeholders (WP3) andoutreach projects for culture consumers worldwide (WP4).Each WP is devised to achieve corresponding objectives:1. Interrogate the colonial patrimony of archives,2. Conceive a new digital curational framework,3. Transfer publishing and editing agencies about heritage curation to heritage stakeholders, and4. Democratize curatorial practices.The objectives constitute DeCoSEAS envisaged decolonization of heritage curation that acutelyresponds to current public and academic debates on de/colonization and heritage restitution. Theproject is a pilot study for this vision adopting a knowledge chain with three formative orientationpoints: the improvement of access to heritage, the transfer of agency to stakeholders of heritage, andthe diversification of the dialogue about heritage curation.DeCoSEAS employs a paradigm-shifting methodological approach focused on hearing and listening asdialogical modes of knowledge formation. It complements conventional academic faculties ofwatching and reading as modes of singular objectification. DeCoSEAS strives for the inclusion ofvoices, stances and interpretations that have hitherto remained unheard in existing discourses aboutheritage by attending to multiple, time-bound and intricately entangled voices simultaneously (thoserecorded from the past and those from SE Asian partners today). With these action plans, DeCoSEASaims to provide new insights in and new practices of heritage curation and participation.
