IMPACT18 – Matter in Movement centres around diverse modes of digital, performative and architectural transaction spaces and infrastructures. The interests of Forensic Architecture, Jaya Klara Brekke & Paul Feigelfeld and Christiane Kühl & Chris Kondek (doublelucky productions) direct in this context toward the digital, political, ecological and economic realities of global conflicts, which they explore through artistic and investigative practices.

In focus during the course of the symposium will be the question of how methodologies in activism, performance and technology can be spanned and developed beyond their own disciplinary boundaries.

The IMPACT symposium is flanked by a programme of public events offering insights into the work and methods of this year’s guest contributors.

The transdisciplinary symposium is aimed at artists, practitioners and theorists from the areas of science, journalism, technology, political activism, social work and architecture.
