Panel 1: "Polycrisis" // Shifting Paradigms Symposium Karlsruhe University of Arts and Design & ZKM

Panel 1 (of 4): Discussion with Simon Sheikh (HfG Karlsruhe), Monica Narula (ETH Zurich), Alistair Hudson (ZKM Karlsruhe), Nina Zschocke (HfG Karlsruhe) Introduction by: Prof. Constanze Fischbeck Shifting Paradigms: December 5-6, 2024 Research Symposium by HfG and ZKM / Organisation and Project Lead: Désirée Düdder-Lechner Shifting Paradigms Research symposium of the Karlsruhe University of Arts and Design Karlsruhe in cooperation with Zentrum für Kunst und Medien (ZKM) Karlsruhe 05.12. und 06.12.2024. The Karlsruhe University of Arts and Design (HfG) Karlsruhe and the Center for Art and Media in Karlsruhe (ZKM) were conceived in the 1990s by founding director Heinrich Klotz as places for contemporary research focused on new media. With their combination of university and cultural institution, they offer excellent preconditions for the networking of artistic and scientific approaches, for which, however, a different framework is still needed in Germany. An overarching postgraduate program is intended to bring together and utilize interdisciplinary expertise in order to explore the relationships between art, theory and design in a new way, thus building on the pioneering founding idea of the HfG and ZKM. At the same time, it is intended to respond to a larger paradigm shift that seems to be taking place in art and culture as well as in the scientific field and which is expressed on the one hand in crises of legitimization and on the other in new and creative forms of research and production of knowledge. The HfG Karlsruhe is taking this diagnosis as an opportunity to redesign hybrid formats of research and also to question the function of academic doctorates. To present and discuss these programmatic considerations, the HfG is organizing a first symposium with international guests in cooperation with the ZKM Karlsruhe on 5 and 6 December 2024, which aims to design spaces and ideas for a transforming research practice. In four panels, the French historian and philosopher of science Bernadette Bensaude-Vincent, the professor of art studies and media theory Matthias Bruhn, the professor of time-based media and performance Filipa César, the scenographer and deputy HfG rector Constanze Fischbeck, the ZKM director Alistair Hudson, the artist and professor of code and image Susanne Kriemann, ADBK Munich Professor Armin Linke, ZKM-Hertzlab Director Tina Lorenz, artist, curator and member of the Raqs Media Collective Monica Narula, Professor of Critical Theory and Media Philosophy Simon Sheikh, performance artist and activist Joy Mariama Smith, Professor for Design Füsun Türetken and Professor of Digital Aesthetics Nina Zschocke with other experts, the audience and members of both institutions.
