With LUNCH 14, the editors wondered if they
could use the frontier story itself to de-centre its power. They divide
this task into four sections: Edges explores the form and possibilities
of the edge itself, and unravels the hard binary condition of the
frontier. Wild flips the narrative around, picking apart established
categorisations of wild and tame to deny their separateness. Metrics
examines methods of observing and quantifying themselves as tools for
gaining new understandings: the map creates 'the frontier' so to change
the way we map or measure is to change the frontier itself. And finally,
Culture takes on the 'us' and 'them' of the frontier, shifting our
perception of this as a binary divide to a growing rhizomatic network of
beings: where the meeting of cultures does not mean appropriation,
erasure and dominance but a hope for generative complexity.
