Kommentare/ Inhalte:
“The space in which we live, which draws us out of ourselves, in which the erosion of our lives, our time and our history occurs, the space that claws and gnaws at us, is also, in itself, a heterogeneous space.” (Michel Foucalt 1967: 2)

“It is not where it is or what it is that matters but how you see it.” (Saul Leiter)


This is a digital seminar that takes place in real time and space. At 10.00 on Friday 4th December, seminar participants begin at the Carlebach Platz, move to be 12.00 at the Al-Quds Moschee in St. Georg, and then 14.00 at the inner-city St. Nikolaikirche. They communicate their perceptions with each other, as texts, clips or pictures in an online meeting room (using a Slack account). The data may include questions, poems, interviews with bystanders, and photographs of fellow participants. This makes it possible to address the question: “How do I look?”; which could mean, how people may view us in that place – standing, taking photographs and studying our telephone screens? And it could also, be a question about how our biographies shape our perception of things. Both aspects of thinking are important elements in contributing to a culture of human rights and peaceful co-existence. On the following day, three project groups will then each be responsible for creating a WordPress Blog which seeks to analyze the different perceptions of the places. They can supplement the data with books, articles and archival material. These will be presented and discussed in plenary at the end of the seminar. The end products will be available as online open-source contributions to encourage multi-perspectival thinking/ hermeneutical self-awareness in relation to issues of religion, ethnicity and politics.
