Accelerationism and architecture is the outcome of a seminar on speculative realism and accelerationism at the AdbK Nürnberg with guest lecturer Armen Avanessian. Realism is regarded in this context as a transformative practice, that allows a speculative approach on the dimension of time. Is it possible to regard the past from a perspective of the future - which is our present?

Not so long ago, the project that would have seen modernization spread over the whole planet came up against unexpected opposition from the planet itself. Should we give up, deny the problem, or grit our teeth and hope for a miracle? Alternatively we could inquire into what this modern project has meant so as to find out how it can be begun again on a new footing. Such an inquiry becomes possible if we accept that there is a huge disjunction between what the Moderns experience and the accounts they give of that experience. Here, we propose to continue the inquiry that was begun with the hard-copy “interim report” published as a book with Découverte. First, by adding to the work the documentation it was lacking (notes, glossary, references, visual material and articles). Then, in a second step, by offering a useful digital environment that will turn readers into co-researchers. And finally, as a third step, by republishing the collective results.

Terrorscapes is a transdisciplinary, international network of scholars and professionals that will critically analyze how, where, when and/or if key places and times of twentieth-century terror and mass violence in Europe are presented, interpreted and represented. We use a range of perspectives and methodologies, as well as a comparative approach, to analyze how ‘memory discourses’ operate as vehicles of local, national, continental and global identity building in the present.
