Variantology
Variantology has been conceived as an international research project with the aim of developing a critical appraisal of the established concepts of “media”.〔http://variantology.com/〕 The concept of a medium is thus opened up to approaches and disciplines that up to now have remained outside the contemporary discourse on media, such as theology, various musicology, aspects of natural sciences, fine arts or classical philology. Furthermore it is opened up to cultures of knowledge that have long been excluded from the western discourse, like the oriental and Arabic-Islamic culture. Variantology also attempts to explore how reciprocally these disciplines then become open to thinking in categories and terms of media and communication. Consequently, the network of research that constitutes the Variantology project involves scholars based in academic institutions as well as artists, musicians and authors.〔http://entropie.digital.udk-berlin.de/wiki/Variantology〕
== Theoretical Basis ==
To come to a different understanding of media, a central part of research is the development of a network of scientists, artists and scholars who are engaged with the "deep time relations“ between arts, sciences, and technologies. The term "deep time relations“ refers to the notion of being a plurality of traversals through the genealogy of what we call media today.〔"Deep Time" is a term coined in palaeontological studies, especially by Stephen Jay Gould and John McPhee.〕 The underlying theoretical center is Michel Foucault’s concept of genealogy,〔Foucault, Michel. "Nietzsche, Genealogy, History.” in: Paul Rabinow (Editor). The Foucault Reader. Vintage. 1984. ISBN 0-394-71340-0〕 which he developed from Friedrich Nietzsche’s thinking about morality as a historical- and social-generated construction.〔Nietzsche, Friedrich. On the Genealogy of Morals. Oxford University Press. 2009. ISBN 0-19-953708-9〕 Foucault's approach in this connection was to comprehend history as a constitution of knowledge, of discourses, of objectification and so on, detached from an idea of historical subjects and previously unquestioned categories of western (Eurocentric) culture and power.
