About us

Bright Rollercoaster is an experimental space for trying out ideas.  Because some of us are French to English translators, these experiments will often involve potential or actual translation projects, but not just that.  These experiments will also have to do with contemporary art, electronic dance music, film, philosophy, genre fiction in translation or otherwise, Carl Jung, James Bond, Queen—in short, this is a space for experimenting with the things we love! In that sense, it will be decidedly post-critical.  And finally we should say that none of this has to do with being right.  We want to experiment with ideas, not judge them.  We could quote here the Belgian philosopher Laurent de Sutter:  “Being right gets you nowhere, in order to think you have to be prepared to lose.”
