THE CLIMATIC DRESS
Thinking with Materials
by Raquel Buj. 2nd June 2025. 3pm-6pm. Rooms 408-409.
This workshop will begin with a brief presentation of some of the works and processes carried out in Buj Studio. It will continue with a presentation of the proposed topic explaining its context. We will work from material samples from which extract new concepts and design possibilities. A common work panel will be co-created, an experimental moodboard built from materials, texts, images, drawings that will become a landscape of new possibilities and, maybe, new questions…
Deactivating Waves: Reverberations between Design and Anthropology
For this year’s STADTLABOR FOR MULTIMODAL ANTHROPOLOGY: SUMMER SERIES 2024-2025, the ERC team has organised a series of events that explore the intersection between design and anthropology and the capacities of materials to shield, protect, insulate and condition spaces and places. In the workshops and talks we will investigate, from the perspective of design practice, how material interact with anthropology as a multimodal tool. during the semester, designers will share with us how they engage in wave-material research and how those waves particularly shape their design pathways and triggers imagination.
All events will take place at the Institute for European Ethnology (IfEE). Rooms 408-409.
