Method Workshop Techniques Matter. Researching More-than-Human Worlds

With this two-day method workshop we bring together local and international actors researching techno-aesthetic and -scientific approaches towards natureculture.

We are particularly interested in the sensorial dimensions of scientific and aesthetic research and its 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.

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

The two-day methods workshop takes place from May 7-8, 2020 at the ixdm-lab of the Academy of Arts and Design FHNW.

Invited speakers: Yves Citton, Paris; Anna Krzywoszynska, Sheffield; Christoph Kueffer, Rapperswil; Jacopo Rasmi; Andreas Rigling, Birmensdorf; Alex Toland, Weimar, Berlin and the Ecodata-Team.
