Call for Applicants: Atmospheric Feedback Loops Workshop - Susan Schuppli

On 25 and 26 February 2016, Sonic Acts hosts a two-day workshop led by artist and researcher Susan Schuppli. For this very special workshop, the participants will visit the Cabauw Experimental Site for Atmospheric Research (Cesar), which was established in 2002. At present, it is a consortium of eight institutes and universities located in the Netherlands, making it the focal point of experimental atmospheric research in the Netherlands. The Cabauw site is a unique observational facility with a comprehensive set of remote sensing and in-situ equipment that is used to monitor the state of the atmosphere, its radiative properties and its interaction with the land surface. During this two-day workshop, participants will be introduced to some of Cesar’s methods and processes. This knowledge will then be unpacked the following day in a practice-oriented workshop, dealing with questions relating to how investigative tools that scientists have developed can be used to make the changes in our atmosphere legible or visible, and finally even re-narrate them? To apply please send a short biography, a motivation why you would like to attend, why you are interested in research-through-practice, and your expectations to workshop[@]sonicacts[.]com. The deadline for application is 12 February 2016. Participants must attend the full programme. More information about the workshop can be found on the Atmospheric Feedback Loops Workshop page.
