On drifting is a participatory lexicon imagined and produced by the collective Calypso36°21 from 2018 to 2021, as part of its curatorial research programme Out.of.the.blue.map. This book gathers contributions proposed by a multitude of people whose experiences and relationships to Mediterranean liquid and solid spaces challenge the dead angles of institutional knowledge about these spaces.
Inhabitants of Mediterranean shores, maritime technicians, navigators, activists, artists, poets, lawyers, architects, sociologists, anthropologists, writers, philosophers and political scientists have been collaborating with Calypso36°21 since 2018 to create this final edition.
Conceived as a collective, trilingual atlas, On drifting aims to develop participative knowledge production processes about Mediterranean liquid and solid spaces.
