Title A name given to the resource The Project of Becoming: The LGBT Movement’s Elastic Resistance in Post-Soviet Countries Subject The topic of the resource LGBT rights and Post-Soviet Contemporary History Description An account of the resource What began as a digital anthropological project, rhizomed into a project not contained to one specific discipline. ‘The Project of Becoming’ critically investigates the multivalent uses of maps in exposing the contemporary LGBT community of post-socialist states in Eastern Europe. As full citizenship being denied due to their sexual orientation, this purportedly ‘off the grid’ community becomes a case study exposing the dilemma of collecting data while remaining ethical to the community one is trying to render in the name of research. This project retraces the multiple research circuits used in coming to this conclusion. It is through these taxonomies a recycling of the term Queer Space is ultimately reanimated and shown crossing the multiple territorial divisions among: digital technology, the humanities and public displays of activism, where each becomes sites of resistance for critical engagement.

Title A name given to the resource Map of Warsaw Pride Route, 2014 Description An account of the resource This abstracted map was created by reviewing hours of footage from the Warsaw Pride Parade. During research it became apparent these routes are not publicly distributed online leading one to speculate this removal from the public domain could be for safety concerns. Not unique to this region, pride parades often see a fair share of protests by anti-LGBT advocates. More pressing to this region has been the often recorded violent reactions to these parades. By not having a map, it makes it harder for those against homosexual rights to protest these ephemeral critical masses. It would make logical sense to remove these from the internet thus allowing them to continue while curbing these violent reactions. Here, I parallel this notion, removing any physical mention of the city and place with the exception of the background map of Poland. The use of the 'pink curtains' is a term developed in reference to LGBT cultural in the post-Socialist countries, weaving together the idea of the Iron Curtain with the unofficial color of the LGBT movement: pink.

Title A name given to the resource Mapping Genetic Origins Description An account of the resource Genome mapping reveals the tensions between ‘origins’ and ‘homelands’. Our genetic ‘origins’ are probabilistic, not deterministic, because they show our ancestors’ mobility across space, not that they were born into a ‘homeland’ within a particular set of state borders. When one sends in his/her saliva sample, the genome map will reveal not ‘where you are from’ but rather where people with similar genes were grouped 500 years ago before intercontinental travel (as seen in Map 1). As the sample pool increases, one’s ‘origins’ shift. For example, Scott’s original genome map showed that he was mostly Eastern European; today, he is mostly Northern European! When I sent in a request to access my ‘previous identities’, a 23andMe representative responded that they did not provide such information because ‘your results are a living analysis’. Whereas one’s homeland is a socially-constructed relationship to a space, genetic mapping constantly shifts one’s origins across the geopolitical map. Genome mapping ‘unmaps’ our very association with a homeland. Yet, the concept of ‘homeland’ is a more powerful way to relate to a given space because it is bundled with culturally sanction claims (and emotions) to a given territory. Genetic origins, on the other hand, can feel empty, anachronistic, disconnected. I am not going to take over Italy because I am 2.4% Neanderthal, but I wouldn’t be so happy if the Italian government expropriated my farm on which my family had lived for generations. Homeland gives us a distorted but satisfying sense that we are connected to a static, primordial lineage, that ‘people who share my values and language have always been there’. Genomic mapping, on the other hand, tells us that we are all related in different ways. Homelands emphasize the need for borders against the encroachment of the ‘Other’; genetic origins show that you and the ‘Other’ are 4th cousins. We already know that the idea of homelands can be distorted for political purposes, but whether origins research will be distorted to remap new state or national borders is still an unknown. Current geopolitical maps obfuscate the complexity of genetic origins. Genome results show that in an x sample pool, one shares a similar genetic composition with a group of people who happened to be clustered in this geographic area 500 years ago. How they map this geographic area, however, is peculiar. Why are Native Americans spanning several continents depicted as a single population? Why are Ashkenazi and Eastern Europeans two different categories when Jewish populations in other parts of Europe at the time are not recognized on the map? The geopolitical map that is intended to show how we are atomized we are may be a limiting tool for mapping our common origins. Some populations appear much larger, while others are invisible. Ironically, while genomic mapping reveals the tensions between homelands and origins, it also demonstrates their common traits. Both homelands and origins speak to our desires—at least those who submit their saliva samples—to be part of some human collective identity. In both cases, the distorted geopolitical map helps us visualise this mystical dimension of our lives. For example, Map 2 displays my genetic relatives all of whom I have never met, all across the globe. These relatives are not defined by kinship and my encounters with them, but determined by 23andMe’s relational databases that tell us that we shared a common ancestor. This recalibration of my mental map of my relatives feels quite odd. If we ever met, would we eventually act like family? 23andMe can also tell you whether or not you and another person could be relatives—if not now, then in the future. Figure 1 shows that Scott and I are not related, but there are grey overlaps in our chromosomes where there is still ‘not enough information’. It feels weird to find out that you are incorporated into relational networks of which you may not be yet aware, but it is also quite amazing. But it is also this very sense of wonder and magic of being part of something greater than ourselves, I think, that leads us to politicize and racialize such results, and could potentially lead us toward a dangerous path. And this is where homelands and origins are more similar than different.
