Künstlerischen Praktiken ist ein Umgang mit Kräfteverhältnissen inhärent. Beispielsweise finden in raumbezogenen oder performativen Arbeiten Gravitationskräfte, das Fallen und Schweben, als physikalische Kategorien Eingang. Prinzipien der Anziehung oder des Abstoßens sind nicht nur formal eine Grundlage für Arbeiten in verschiedenen Medien, sie wirken auch im metaphorischen Sinn und können soziale Verhältnisse, Machtstrukturen, Netzwerke und Funktionszusammenhänge aufzeigen oder hervorbringen. Aus theoretischer… 2026S, scientific seminar, 4.0 ECTS

As a scientific term, “entropy” was coined in the formulation of the second law of thermodynamics in the mid 19th century in reference to the Ancient Greek term trope meaning “transformation.” While its technical definition has to do with the consumption of energy and the statistical measure of heat as it is transformed into work, broadly speaking entropy refers to… 2025W, scientific seminar, 4.0 ECTS

Der Medientheoretiker Friedrich Kittler verglich nicht nur Sigmund Freuds Konzept der „Erinnerungsspuren“ mit den Einschreibungen des Phonographen in akustische Speichermedien, er schrieb sowohl dem Phonographen als auch der Psychoanalyse zu, das „Reale“ und das Unbewusste hörbar machen zu können, indem sie es „aufnehmen“ und wiedergeben. Ausgehend davon fragen wir in dem Seminar danach, wie psychoanalytische Konzepte – wie das der… 2025W, scientific seminar, 4.0 ECTS

“Fascism” is a term that describes a process that precedes fascism, is intertwined with it, but does not necessarily mean that the result of this process is indeed always fascism. It is therefore not identical to the description and analysis of historical fascisms, such as German or Italian fascism, but must take their analyses, as well as their colonial precursors… 2026S, Lecture, 2.0 ECTS

Fleisch und Schein Ich bin der Fleisch der stets bejaht* In Abwandlung von Goethes Zitat ‚Ich bin der Geist, der stets verneint‘ (Faust, 1808) betont James Joyce in seinem Roman Ulysses (1922) das Körperlich Irdische, in dem er Molly Bloom sagen lässt : I am the flesh that always affirms/Ich bin das Fleisch, das stets bejaht.

The garden is so many things at once: ubiquitous phenomenon and practice, lively concept and physical, ever-changing place where encounters with the other and making kin can take place. As an emblematic, metaphorical, ambiguous and absolutely concrete place, the garden brings together diverse aspects of more-than-human worlds. In an intimate interaction with soil, water, plants, animals, weather and seasons, practice… 2026S, scientific seminar, 4.0 ECTS

The lecture covers art from around 1945 to the present. In what way the works discussed can be regarded as "contemporary" (or even as "Art") is one of the questions this class seeks to tackle. Another line of inquiry concerns the adjective "global" that can be applied to art, the art market, and art history respectively. I aim to "provincialize"… 2026S, Lecture, 2.0 ECTS

Welcome to Grammar and Architecture of New Media - a space for disruption, deconstruction, and radical reflection. New media are not only communication channels; they shape and deform the foundations of our reality. Fake news, deep fakes—these are not random disruptions. But aren’t they also artistic acts? Do they not create a kind of “hyperreality” in which truth and fiction… 2025W/2026S, artistic Seminar, 2.0 ECTS

Hacking is in nowadays a common practice among post-internet artists. By subverting the system, reverse engineering, hacking the world, defending access and openismus, we employ a top-down methodology using deconstruction as a method to “make” art. Acknowledging Vilém Flusser's (1986) challenge of opening the “black box” we question what is behind the tech industries, unravel its toxic commodity chains at… 2025W/2026S, artistic Seminar, 2.0 ECTS

Sonic thinking, as conceptualized in contemporary sound studies, moves the thinker beyond text: it engages spaces, bodies and the relations between sounding and listening agents as material and corporeal, and often generates meaning that is not necessarily semiotic. This course asks what “reading” and, in extension, “writing” could mean when thinking through and with sound. How can I write like… 2026S, Introductory Seminar, 3.0 ECTS

Vor allem in den 60iger und 70igerJahren wurde der Alltag im Privatleben zum Thema in der Kunst. Naheliegenderweise beschäftigten sich häufig Künstlerinnen damit.

Das Interesse an den Zwängen des Alltags und der Gesellschaft unter wechselnden Vorzeichen hat auch in gegenwärtigen Kunstproduktionen und… 2025W, Introductory Seminar, 3.0 ECTS

Interface as a process – art, agent systems and the constitution of open spaces of meaning In the common understanding, human interface design describes the design of a user interface through which a person interacts with a technical system.

Auctoritas und Potestas - der Ausnahmezustand als Paradigma des Regierens Angesichts der unaufhaltsamen Steigerung dessen, was man als "weltweiten Bürgerkrieg" bezeichnen kann, scheint der Ausnahmezustand in der Politik der Gegenwart das entscheidende Paradigma des Regierens zu sein. Bereits bei Thomas Hobbes der in seinem Leviathan eine ideale, absolute Herrschaft entwirft, war die Erfahrung des englischen Bürgerkrieges (1642-1649) die Urszene politischer… 2025W/2026S, scientific seminar, 4.0 ECTS

Crop plants, but also ornamental plants, were an early commodity that was brought to Europe in the early modern period during the Crusades, on expeditions, and from colonized countries. They were collected, cultivated, admired, and used as food, in medicine, and for decoration. As carriers of a transcultural but also colonial memory and due to their symbolic significance, they still… 2025W, Lecture, 2.0 ECTS

In this block seminar, we will explore the role of desire in forging anti-fascist futures. Our starting point is the recognition that desire is not inherently subversive—it becomes political through how it is bound: either to collective liberation or to annihilation. The advancing fascist intensification increases the supply of fantasmatic objects that channel desire in fascist directions. Drawing on impulses… 2025W, scientific seminar, 2.0 ECTS

Using the inventory of the art collection and the archive of the Angewandte, we will devote ourselves to the various forms of reference to works of art and integrate them into our own artistic practices and concepts.

Pflanzen gelten gemeinhin als passiv: Sie können sich nicht eigenständig von einem Ort zum anderen bewegen und sich nicht durch Laute mitteilen. Oftmals werden sie daher lediglich als grüner Hintergrund wahrgenommen. Doch dieses Verständnis von Pflanzen hat sich seit den frühen 2000er Jahren gewandelt. Zunächst in der Biologie und dann zunehmend in Literatur und Kunst wird seither erforscht, wozu Pflanzen… 2026S, Lecture, 2.0 ECTS
