Preparing for uncertain times: fieldwork with Adriana Knouf

Waag Futurelab

We live in transitioning times. How can we prepare for the odd, alien and other? Artist Adriana Knouf will engage us in her practice.

De Waag

During this workshop, we will practice learning from other (non-human) bodies and embracing the strange. We’ll start by being with and among more-than-human entities in close proximity of the Nieuwmarkt. Adriana Knouf will provide inspiration for writing through site-specific explorations and prompts as well as how-to’s for small scale sampling and intimate relating. We will finish with a collective dinner (bring your own) and sharing of our work. We hope you will stay over for the concluding presentation of Adriana at 20:00, where your writings will be woven into Adriana’s talk.It is also possible to join Adriana&#x27;s concluding presentation without participating in the workshop. A ticket for only the presentation costs €5,- with a drink included.
