Cooperation with the project “The Witness” by Julie Beauvais

Shabari Rao, Open Invitation

  • Transdisciplinarity

In the spring semester 2023, the Master Transdisciplinarity cooperates with the sound artist, performer and curator Julie Beauvais. In a lab and a project week, students of the Master Transdisciplinarity form a satellite group of the project “The Witness”. In this project, artists, researchers and activists from different parts of the world come together to listen to our threatened planet with their local communities. As the year unfolds, the groups meet regularly to share their ongoing fieldwork and to deepen their own connections and collaborative potential with the communities they are working with. They present photo, audio, video and text fragments on The Witness multimedia platform, giving voice to these local communities, their skills and their wisdom.

The projects featured by “The Witness” implore us to witness what may disappear forever, as well as to build, with urgency, greater caregiving for our non-human kin. During the semester, a group of students works on themes specially chosen for the platform, in dialogue with groups from other parts of the world.
