Issue 17 of .dpi is the second issue in a three-part series focusing on the theme of resistance. “Adherence: Messy Resistance” invites readers to focus on the relationship between resistance and adherence via the tricked concept of adherence_resistance. This conceptual intervention attempts to bring us beyond a critical analysis based on duality towards an approach, at once philosophical and artistic, that exposes possible grips in the different contemporary entanglements of power. Adherence_resistance is an ongoing process (of everyday life); a way of doing, of work to be done at every level (at all times). In this issue of .dpi, the contributors shed light on a variety of practices that find their subversiveness in their singular intimacy with institutions and slippery structures of power.
