“Theoretical practice is what interests us most: to continuously question the relation between theory and practice. We consider the tension that arises from combining those two variant “practices” a mere source of both forms of activity: “theoretical” (philosophy, sciences) and “practical” (politics, technology, arts). Staying in a domain of broadly understood philosophy, we are attempting to develop it in correlation with the whole abundance of practices, but equally with a reference to the sciences building those practices. For us, philosophy is an element that develops all practice, but also interrupts this very theory and practice, as they exist only in a fundamental relation with their exterior (matter, life, time and space). We are interested in a possibility of enriching that philosophical element with notions and figures excluded from it, as well as reflecting upon a necessity of reinterpreting exhausted ideologies and discourses. We wish for our own teoretical practice to stay in a continuous reference with material and symbolic aspects of our existence, with time and space in which we think. We also want it not to be blind to the conditions of life in which others live.

We are aiming for a development of an ability to practice the theory: rebuilding and deconstruction of the existing theoretical vocabularies, finding new spaces for application of theorems in developing sciences, penetrating newborn inter- and transdisciplinary scientific discourses, interpretation of social and technological changes. Our objective is also to create circumstances in which young researchers, Master and Ph.D. students, could practice their theories. This offer is especially aimed at those, who are not scared to cross boundaries of disciplines they study.”
