Symposium, tours and workshops with Boris Sieverts, Selvagem Cycle of studies and Social Pleasure Center
November 9–13, 2022
The body, urban space, cultural and social relations, the biosphere, the technosphere, you name it—robust local structures that influence, disrupt and support each other while remaining visibly or covertly connected are at work everywhere. “On Practices of Emergence” enquires into strategies, practices and processes that strengthen exchange relations on a local and immediately perceptible level. What are the epistemological resources we ought to cultivate and make visible because they continue to be marginalised and excluded?
IMPACT22 has signed up three experts—Selvagem—Cycle of Studies, Social Pleasure Center and Boris Sieverts—as co-convenors who will provide thought-provoking impulses.
Their practice encompasses, interrogates and correlates urbanism, context-bound knowledge resources and body-based resilience experiences. They will take the participants on urban walks, introduce them to somatic activism and set up various dialogue formats.
IMPACT22 encourages possibilities for action in and invites proposals from a wide range of artistic, social, bodily, scientific, ecological and other relational practices.
To participate in the four-day symposium, you can apply via the open call and enter your own contribution, which will be shared and discussed with other international experts in the second stage of the event, IMPACT’s two-day assembly.
