The meaning of the word ‘error’, in its origin, is neutral. In Latin, ‘errare’ means both ‘to wander freely’ and ‘to wander from the right path’. After the seventeenth century, however, the word ‘error’ lost its ambiguity within English usage and became clearly understood as wrong-doing, as defect, as a way of missing a desired effect. The ninth issue of Pfeil Magazine focuses on the potential of erroneous processes to redefine the meaning of malfunction, and takes a look at aimless or non-productive movements. Through this reflection, ‘error’ is once again introduced as the possibility of wandering freely.
