Project Description
The Hybrid is a thematic periodical aimed at fostering a culture of research and writing at the Indus Valley School of Art and Architecture and beyond. 

“History has been judgmental about forgetting. The discipline’s traditional preoccupation with memory is embedded in a discourse of value. Only what is valued is remembered and 

what is forgotten must not have been worthy of remembering. Postmodern historians contested the positivist tradition to make room for those omitted in the annals of memory. 

Social and oral historians pertinently asked, ‘Of value to whom?’ and worked to mainstream the voice of the marginalised narrator. Even as they rethought official silences though, they still privileged memory in the accounts of their disenfranchised narrators. As Alessandro Portelli wrote, recounting is ‘less about events than about their meaning.’  Despite re-centering the forgotten, the understanding that forgetting something implies its lack of meaning to the subject persisted. And so, a key concern in this volume has been to rethink the pervasive connotations of forgetting and to consider if forgetting could be a site of productive/generative opportunity. ” - Seher Naveed
