#aboutORTE Symposium
Thinking, perceiving and designing landscape are closely interrelated. Spatial, social and technical transformations constantly challenge us to reflect on conventional thought patterns. The department of Landscape Aesthetics in Design practices this design-oriented research with changing guest professors.
#überOrte links teaching formats of the last four semesters by guest professor Florian Otto. The symposium takes a look back and forward at the genesis of places that are shaped by socio-cultural practices, technical progress or industrial processes. How can we as designers deal with e.g. nuclear waste repositories, raw material dumps or airplane graveyards?
Positions of former visiting professors at the department enrich the discourse with places that point beyond themselves and narratively accompany society. Participation in the symposium is free of charge. Registration is requested at c.baumgartner[at]asl.uni-kassel[dot]de.
