Biographies in publications are often structured to credit individual achievements. For PARSE Journal we experimented with replacing this individualising approach to cultural practice by narrating the relationships and histories that connect the contributors. In the end, it became apparent that this relational approach to draw a map of affinities rather than achievements would place us, the editors, at the centre of the mapped ecologies. Therefore, we settled, until we find a better way, with the conventional self-narrated biographies as provided by the individuals and collectives involved. What is more? We suggested replacing the normalised descriptor “author” with “reuser” in an attempt to account for the entangled understanding of authorship that is at the very centre of the entire project.
