Symposium zu Nachhaltigkeit und Digitalität an künstlerischen Hochschulen
InKüLe, klangzeitort und das RIFS Research Institute for Sustainability / Helmholtz Centre Potsdam veranstalteten am 24.1.2025 ein gemeinsames Symposium an der UdK Berlin (Bundesallee 1-13, Raum 34).
This interdisciplinary workshop, led by Marcello Lussana, Anastasia Putsykina, Tristan Wheeler (InKüLe) & guest artist Christine Saulut Bonansea, explores the intersection of movement, sound, and technology. We will provide essential knowledge and hands-on tools for designing interactive sound performances!
Learn how to create interactive sound systems using sensors such as smartphone apps, camera tracking, contact microphones, and Odd Balls, as well as software like Ableton Live, TouchDesigner, and Supercollider. Through movement and object interaction, we will experiment with sound as a dynamic, performative medium and explore how body movement can be effectively sonified.
In the digital age, boundaries between material and immaterial worlds are increasingly blurred. Today's hybrid materialism challenges us to rethink the nature of matter and the ways in which our digital and physical realities interact. In this shifting landscape, how do digital technologies shape the materiality of objects, bodies or environments?
In the second edition of the InKüLe open call, it brings together a series of student-led workshops initiated and supported by InKüLe. Students were invited to propose a workshop topic they're currently researching in related to Im/materialities. InKüLe co-curated selected proposals, provides technical support, spatial organisation and general planning of the workshop. The workshops are open to students from all UdK departments to participate, offering a place for transdisciplinary exploration and exchange.
Im/materialties ³: Shared Listening
A workshop with Bea Targosz, supported by Anastasia Putsykina (InKüLe)
Discover the art of field recording and sound processing in this interactive workshop open to students from all departments—no prior experience required. Learn how to record and edit sounds, explore new ways of listening, and integrate sound into your artistic practice.

Im/materialties²: Reshaping Plastics
A workshop with Aron Petau, supported by Franz Siebler (InKüLe)
This hands-on workshop invites participants to actively address plastic pollution by transforming waste into durable, meaningful objects. Unlike traditional industrial recycling, which often prioritizes economic over ecological concerns, this workshop empowers individuals to reclaim and repurpose plastic in a way that fosters creativity, sustainability, and personal agency.
Performance bei der Veranstaltung „An Experimental Ecology. Kunstpraxis im Dialog der Disziplinen an der UdK Berlin“
Mit der Performance „Hybrid Rituals“ ist InKüLe Teil der Veranstaltung „An Experimental Ecology. Kunstpraxis im Dialog der Disziplinen an der UdK Berlin“ im UNI.T (Theater der UdK Berlin) im Rahmen des 50-jährigen Jubiläums der UdK Berlin.
Symposium zu Nachhaltigkeit und Digitalität an künstlerischen Hochschulen
Mit einem gemeinsamen Symposium von InKüLe, klangzeitort und dem RIFS Rese-arch Institute for Sustainability / Helmholtz Centre Potsdam laden wir alle Interessierten zu einem diskursiven und praxisnahen Austausch über die nachhaltige Nutzung digitaler Technologien in künstlerischen Arbeitsprozessen und in der Lehre ein.

Today's hybrid materialism challenges us to rethink the nature of matter and the ways in which our digital and physical realities interact. In this shifting landscape, how do digital technologies shape the materiality of objects, bodies or environments? In the second edition of the InKüLe open call, we invite passionate students or recent graduates to apply with a workshop proposal. Your proposal should focus on exploring and discussing the theme of Im/materialities. You will need to choose one of three fields and their corresponding technologies as the foundation of your workshop.
Our first two quickstart guides for the streamingkit and the vrkit° were released with UdK Berlin Rundgang 2024. Download and fold your printable quickstart guides here or get them with your next cooperation with InKüLe!
Scanning Workshop for Digital Practices Joel Tenenberg, SHK InKüLe
What is 3D scanning? Which different methods are available to use and how do I select one? Could this even be relevant for purely analogue arts practices?
As we navigate the digital age, we see how it affects our connection with our voices and bodies. Identity is fluid, realities overlap, and bodies are always in an in-between state. How do our bodies adjust to the changing stories of our online/offline presence? In this call, we seek passionate students eager to explore and discuss voice, body, and digitality intersections with an interdisciplinary student audience.
Hybrid Bodies³: səˈlesCHəl - Experiencing Edges of the Digital Self
The 5-hour workshop "səˈlesCHəl - Experiencing Edges of the Digital Self" will explore the wide-ranging territories of identity and the concept of the 'open avatar' within the digital realm. The workshop utilizes elements from the interactive tool "Hyperlinked Rituals," developed by Christian Schmidts and Jonny-Bix Bongers, which allows for integration of real-life interaction with the dynamic gaming software Unreal Engine.
In this beginner-friendly workshop, Maxime Lethelier will introduce participants to TouchDesigner. This is a node-based programming software enabling its users to easily create real time visuals and manage data. The workshop will focus at first on how to start working with TouchDesigner, and then on different ways to integrate it in sonic arts workflow and creating immersive environments.
Is it possible to create a graphic novel with generative A.I.? What does it mean to use these emerging media in collaboration with others? And why does their local and offline application matter?
Embark on an immersive journey into the world of virtual avatars! This interdisciplinary workshop, led by Paula Strunden and Viviana Defazio, merges dance with virtual reality (VR). In Virtual Vibrations, you'll discover the fascinating interplay of movement, sound, and extended reality (XR). Inspired by Paula Strunden's XR dance performance "Rhetorical Bodies" and Viviana Defazio's bodywork aimed at connecting with oneself and others through deep listening, you'll create an embodied synthesizer that combines physical movements with auditory expression.

Hybrid Bodies²: Speak Your Story - A Linguistic Exploration of Identity and Diversity
How do we ask questions to learn about each other? What do our mother tongues reveal about us? How do different languages shape our identities? Mother tongue, foreign languages or even memes? How do we define similarities or differences in terms of languages and cultures?

Hybrid Bodies¹: Disembodiment and Spatiality of Voice
The workshop is on exploration of human voice in physical and digital spaces and offers a collective journey that goes beyond conventional boundaries of gender and identity. It encourages participants to appreciate the diverse and imaginative possibilities of voice expression.
On February 8th 2024 the InKüLe Workshop ›sessions_vr lab: sense-making across realities‹ will take place at LaborDigital conference in Zürich (ZHdK - Zurich Univeristy of the Arts)
In this workshop by Federico Zurani, participants will explore the interactive and immersive archive. In VR, the interactive archive becomes an ever-changing environment that can be highly personalized through the use of datasets in Unreal engine.
