KNOWLEDGE | Panel Discussion

Indy Johar (architect, co-founder of 00 (project00.cc)), Sarat Maharaj (Professor of Visual Art and Knowledge Systems, Lund University and Malmö Art Academy), moderated by Michael Kaethler

The panelists speak about the abstraction and commodification of knowledge and how the frameworks of knowledge prevent us from using our cognitive potential or from connecting with ourselves and the world around us. Sarat Maharaj suggests moving towards a more relational consciousness and taking on board the noncognitive dimensions of being in the world to remind us of our non-human connections to animals and plants.

This festival was organized by the ZKM | Zentrum für Kunst und Medien Karlsruhe and the Hochschule für Gestaltung Karlsruhe
