Experimental Machines Adaptive Strategies is an experimental seminar centered on the conception, design, and fabrication of responsive machines and apparatuses that translate information, forces, or interactions into physical, visual, or sonic experiences. Students investigate how machines can become creative collaborators, capable of sensing, interpreting, and expressing phenomena that would otherwise remain invisible or unnoticed. Rather than designing objects for predetermined… 2026W, artistic Seminar, 4.0 ECTS

Content The content of this course is the making of an exhibition. Exhibitions intend to exhibit something. To exhibit, however, can mean many things. An exhibition can make accessible what usually is not. It can create new meaning for what is already known. It can call to mind what has almost been forgotten. It can introduce what has never been… 2026W, scientific seminar, 4.0 ECTS

Architecture as Representation. For architecture, representation is simultaneously a technical, cultural and political question. From drawings through models to buildings and beyond, the semester will explore architecture as a form of media itself. Thinking of architecture as representation allows us to explore its direct relations to culture, material and ideology. And so use work to ask questions about architecture's relationship… 2026W/2027S, Individual Artistic Instruction, 15.0 ECTS

The lecture imparts expertise on the interplay of building parts in constructions, while taking into account selected building materials. The focus is concepts of “monomateriality” – i.e., one single material is used for creating the volume, the load-bearing structure and the skin of the building. Special attention is also given to the strains having an impact on the building and… 2026W, scientific seminar, 3.0 ECTS
