Perhaps it is high time for a xeno-architecture to match is a Brussels-based curatorial and research platform initiated in 2016. The platform explores unconventional narratives for subversive and political architectures (of knowing) in an attempt to re-radicalize the spatial practice. The dynamic relationship between research and practice constitutes both the form and matter of this project, which results in a series of cultural productions and collaborations.

The ongoing crisis in Ukraine lifted energy issues to the top of the agenda of the European Commission. The EU realizes as never before that in terms of gas it is too dependent on Russia, especially in Central and South-Eastern Europe. To tackle this situation, the European Commission has launched the ‘Central and South-Eastern Europe Gas Connectivity’ (CESEC). The primary objective is gas market integration by supporting infrastructure projects, avoiding market fragmentation and improving the security of the gas supply. This thesis analyzes the costs and benefits of regional gas market integration in Central and South-Eastern Europe in the form of the CESEC-initiative. The main research question is whether such regional integration is able tackle the vulnerable energy situation in the region. Although CESEC is an ambitious instrument, the costs of the project are neglected in the official documents of the European Commission. In addition to the Commission’s perspective, the thesis therefore also analyzes the political and economic costs involved for the participating countries. The benefits proposed by the European Commission have the character of a double edged sword. Further diversification of supply and gas market liberalization are expected to trigger respectively a political confrontation with Russia and a loss of national sovereignty in the field of energy. Because gas market integration happens on a voluntary basis, the geographical scope and the speed of integration will dependent on the willingness of the countries in the region to engage in the project. In a scenario where these countries are willing to integrate, the objectives and geographical scope of CESEC can even expand. At any point in the future a political agreement to include other energy sources or to allow the participation of other countries can be reached.

In The Future of the New: Artistic Innovation in Times of Social Acceleration artists, theorists, and professionals working the art field reflect on the role of the arts in a world that is speeding up and changing through joint forces of globalization, digitization, commodification, and financialization. Can artistic innovation still function as a source of critique? How do artists, theorists, and art organizations deal with the changing role of and discourse on innovation? Should we look for alternative ways to innovate, or should we change our discourse and look for other (new!) ways to talk about the new? Combining timely analyses of contemporary art and inspiring visions for the future, The Future of the New attempts to set the agenda for the debate on the function, value and future of artistic innovation.
