Techniques Matter. Researching More-Than-Human Worlds

What kind of techniques might provide us with an open sensorium towards the environment? What are the methods? What the technologies? What kind of processes, relations and aesthetics emerge out of them, and how can we tackle a more-than-human approach?

With this method workshop we bring together local and international researchers exploring techno-aesthetic and -scientific approaches towards natureculture. We are particularly interested in the sensorial and technical dimensions of scientific and aesthetic research and their impact for an ecological awareness. Furthermore, we want to critically discuss our adopted methods and question the role of technology for human’s perception of the world.
