Cardboard Lab
_We will take
Overall goals:
- taking the notion of climate change as a narrative , rather than (inviting scientists scenographers on the topic to spoil beliefs/hysteria within
_We will set up a "Cardboard Laboratory" – a space to set up Props concerning the topic of climate change from different angles
_These angles are defined through the semiotics of habitat, in human action, wearables, housing, ecologies (group works)
_In the first 2 weeks the students set up a scence/setting out of cardboard (Laboratory for mind treatment on climate effects, space capsule for escapists, ...) students set up, in the next 2 weeks the students will build up a narrative written and performed/ acted and recorded for documentation
_The Cardboard Lab takes cardboard as a temporarily media of civilisation
_We curate and frame the seminar conceptually and hand content to the students
_They go for an explorative, hands-on, aesthetic reach approach in formulating their manifesto (perspective on the topic)
Overall goals:
- experimentelle gestalterische Praxis
- demokratische Grundannahme
- Rolle der Landschaft
Timetable:
discourse)
- setting up a Cardboard Laboratory as a space for spatial cardboard props reflecting different angles on climate change
- democratic decision-making on the process
- the Cardboard Laboratory takes cardboard as a temporarily media of civilisation
- role of landscape and theatre
- students work in groups on different scales ( abito ~ human approach; habit ~ social approach; agitare ~ ecological approach;)
- in the first two weeks setting up a scenography, such as a Laboratory for treating Mind Illness through Climate Effects or space capsule for Escapists, )
- in the second two weeks the students bring their settings into live, with storyboards, acting, performing, inviting, improvising, interacting..
- outcome will be recorded movies as well as scenes from the Cardboard Lab in the final exhibition of the interdisciplinary DDE modul
- role of landscape and theatre
- the basic conceptualisation and chosen materials is fixed – the students focus on their personal angle on the topic and train their skills in experience prototyping (as interaction design method)

Materials to organize:
_
- How much cardboard shall we order and where? (C)_
I guess, cardboards can be ordered from the Werkstatt. I could ask Thomas and see how that works. For aesthetic reasons, I would ask, if possible, to order 4mm sandwich corrugated cardboard with WHITE coating. The reason is simply that it could be interesting in the Toni White cubers room. But brown is also ok, I am not picky on that. There are other good reasons to use the brown one. (A)
- Order (hot) glue and tape? (C > ITZ Shop)_
I am not sure. I am wondering if we can get that in Jumbo as they might have more variety.
In the cardboard lab we would need:
Fast white glue (wood type)
Normal white glue (wood type)
Hot glue + gun.
Stiches + gun.
BBQ or even better cheap chop sticks for horizontal connections panel 2 panel.
- Space question (C > Mail to Corina and Flurina)
_
Yes, this is important. We need a room that we can book. We need that ASAP. Ideally an Atelier space.
- Which media equipment do we need? (C)
_
White board, flip chart, beamer projector. Daylight would not be bad.
