as part of Peer to Peer

01.09. – 02.09.2023

Nature and technology are often considered to be opposites. Their actual relationship turns out to be much more complex. Together with medienwerk.nrw, we inaugurate the Peer to Peer event series. The entanglements between landscape and technology, urban planning and nature, the effects of digitisation and the relations between the human and other species will be negotiated in performances, installations, workshops, and talks. The series will move on afterwards, providing insight into North Rhine-Westphalia’s diverse media art landscape in Cologne, Havixbeck near Münster, and Essen.

Image policy of urban design

Lecture Talks & Workshops Social/Urban Movements

Derrida’s The University without Condition is a kind of manifesto for the freedom of research and resistance to the economic co-optation of universities. Designers are trained to visualise natural promises like that of an Ingenhoven valley. The workshop and performance programme aims in the opposite direction, deconstructs the image policy and analyses its impact on the space. The lecture illustrates our discoveries by way of a short journey through the pictorial world of the Ingenhoven valley phenomenon.
