Tales of migration to the Gulf are present in every Egyptian home, yet globally their tales are overshadowed and ignored, the difficulties they go through misunderstood and normalised. Multimedia exhibition 'Being Borrowed' led by anthropologist Farah Hallaba of 'Anthropology Bl 3araby', Egyptian photographer Ali Zaraay, curator Farida Youssef, and designer Sherine El Salla, tackles the lived experience of thousands of Egyptian workers who migrated eastwards in search of better opportunities. "I've lived in Saudi Arabia for 18 years, and my father still lives there," Hallaba tells CairoScene. "It was so interesting yet bizarre to me how this experience is understudied, despite being so common amongst Egyptians. Over the course of three months we've held workshops at Anthropology Bl 3araby about migration to the Gulf, and felt like our conversations should extend beyond, so we started working on this exhibition." Through a series of talks, interactive artworks, articles, installations, and short films the exhibition sheds light on difficult stories and in a sense creates a community for strangers who share the same experience. The exhibition opened on October 2nd, and is welcoming visitors until October 31st at Contemporary Image Collective in Cairo.

Reforming Modernity is a sweeping intellectual history and philosophical reflection built around the work of the Morocco-based philosopher Abdurrahman Taha, one of the most significant philosophers in the Islamic world since the colonial era. Wael B. Hallaq contends that Taha is at the forefront of forging a new, non-Western-centric philosophical tradition. He explores how Taha's philosophical project sheds light on recent intellectual currents in the Islamic world and puts forth a formidable critique of Western and Islamic modernities.Hallaq argues that Taha's project departs from—but leaves behind—the epistemological grounds in which most modern Muslim intellectuals have anchored their programs. Taha systematically rejects the modes of thought that have dominated the Muslim intellectual scene since the beginning of the twentieth century—nationalism, Marxism, secularism, political Islamism, and liberalism. Instead, he provides alternative ways of thinking, forcefully and virtuosically developing an ethical system with a view toward reforming existing modernities. Hallaq analyzes the ethical thread that runs throughout Taha's oeuvre, illuminating how Taha weaves it into a discursive engagement with the central questions that plague modernity in both the West and the Muslim world. The first introduction to Taha's ethical philosophy for Western audiences, Reforming Modernity presents his complex thought in an accessible way while engaging with it critically. Hallaq's conversation with Taha's work both proffers a cogent critique of modernity and points toward answers for its endemic and seemingly insoluble problems
