Focusing on aquatic ecosystems, participants will develop artistic projects and embodied sensory experiences. Field work will take place in Psachna, Greece, with particular attention to the Kolovrechtis Wetland and the Chalcis Strait.Students will engage with a variety of artistic and research methodologies - including storytelling, creative writing, interactive installations, and scientific approaches. The course fosters both experimental and reflective modes of knowledge production, supporting dialogue between disciplines and encouraging the development of new collaborations across ecology, digital media, and contemporary art.Through embodied research, we will explore the ecological, generative, and disruptive dimensions of sensory perceptions - listening, seeing, smelling, tasting, touching, and beyond. Participants will be invited to:1) Develop curatorial, dramaturgical, or theoretical perspectives on aquatic environments;2) Create interactive installations as tools of artistic inquiry and as platforms to reimagine ecological interdependencies beyond human-centered perspectives;3) Critically examine technology, its entanglements with ecology, and its role in the climate crisis.During the field work, students are expected to develop a small project, a prototype, or a component of a larger project. Emphasis will be placed on shared discussions, informed by lectures and supervision. Each participant (individually or in groups) will present their project at the end of the week and document it on a shared wiki platform.The course is coordinated by the Acoustic Ecologies and Media Environments departments at Bauhaus Universität Weimar, hosted by DCARTS of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, with participation of the Department of Art and Media at Aalto University. It is offered within the framework of the Erasmus Blended Intensive Program and carries 6 ECTS credits.
