+**A Situated Archive of the Old Boys Network and its Discontents. Talk with Cornelia Sollfrank**
+//Thursday, 2 September 2021, 17:00-19:00 CET
+Hybrid event, on site in Kassel at ruru-house and online
+Explorative talk with artist/researcher and pioneer of cyberfeminism Cornelia Sollfrank about the creation of an archive of the Old Boys Network (1997-2001).
+The documenta archiv is working on the project "Manual for the Dying" together with the team of ruangrupa, the artistic director of documenta fifteen, the curator Frederikke Hansen and the artistic editor Erick Beltran.
+obn_archive is a project of documenta studies at Kunsthochschule Kassel in collaboration with documenta archiv.
+Being bestowed with the estate of a dying or departed artist or a disbanded artist group can be an overwhelming task, especially if the work has not been identified, registered, and archived in preparation of this ‘afterlife’ by either the artist or the support system surrounding the person, or collective. Other artists who know that they will die soon do not know how they can make their legacy available for future parties, because they find no interest and support while alive. Many of those who end up taking responsibility for the legacy are not equipped for the specialized tasks of locating, preserving, and making it accessible to the public.
+Based on a collaboration with documenta archiv and a series of explorative talks and workshops on how to prepare for one’s death respectively caring for an estate, a publication shall serve as a practical guide for dying artists and the bereaved alike. The output of the manual could be a small book along with a podcast series, a series of booklets, or a classic handbook on the practical issues of (self-)archiving and legacy planning on the one hand and, on the other, discussions on interests and ethics of institutional and commercial stakeholders and researchers, decolonizing instead of patronizing approaches etc.
+The artist Cornelia Sollfrank, will talk about the OBN archive and the plans for its processing, indexing and future storage during the Kassel museums week KW 35 at ruru-Haus, thus opening the series of explorative talks. Sollfrank is a pioneer of cyberfeminism in the 1990s, co-founder of OBN (Old Boys Network) in 1997 and participant in documenta 10 as part of Hybrid Workspace.

 Departing from my experience with Monoskop and other digital archiving initiatives I've been involved with in the past years I would like to bring in some of the questions to which I return again and again... what does it take to maintain a digital resource?; how do we set the criteria for what should be kept?; how to preserve and support contexts, not just a collection of individual items?; is there an option of not perpetuating the online hegemony of data extractivism and surveillance?; what are the consequences of accepting that archives are temporary?
