The annual exhibition of the Muthesius University of Art also takes place in the Corona year, but its concept is by far the most unusual insight of the art school. This is made possible by ONLINESTREAMING and around 50 locations in the Kiel area, which the student planning team was able to gain as a cooperation partner. They give the students the opportunity to exhibit and present their work from the fields of communication design, fine art, industrial design and spatial strategies. There are stations from Gaarden to Holtenau and around the art college. There is an information station at the university itself.
The students not only want to avoid large crowds of people on campus, (...)
“Sensing the Ocean. A Collaboration between Art, Design and Science.”
Tom Duscher, Stephan Sachs, Manfred Schulz (Editors)
“Sensing the Ocean” is based on the collaboration between the Kiel Marine Research Cluster of Excellence The Future Ocean and the Muthesius University of Fine Arts and Design. The book shows how artists, designers and scientists can complement each other creatively, what differentiates artistic and scientific research, and illustrates how the interplay of competence gives rise to new insights.
For many years, the Muthesius University of Fine Arts and Design has been presenting its book and print art to the international audience at the Leipzig Book Fair. This year it will again be represented in the book & art segment (hall 3, booth G 301). Here, the Art Academy Kiel presents outstandingly designed printed works and special typographic book designs from the field of study »typography and book design« (Prof. Annette le Fort and Prof. André Heers). Every year the University’s booth is designed by students for the Book Fair.

Abstract
In this presentation I will discuss the key insights from my practice-led PhD. Through re-examining laundry as a social practice the research develops a series of design provocations to challenge the organisation of laundry practices, and by extension the frequencies and processes in which laundry is carried out. It highlights that understanding laundry as a social practice opens a space to reconceptualise design, laundry behaviour and sustainability. This provides an alternative lens from which to view and develop design theories and practice for sustainability in fashion.
Media sciences oriented towards the cultural sciences involve an historically variant human world- and self-relationship. Medial conditions for an understanding of reality, symbolic representation, cultural practices and artistic design are at the centre of attention. A fundamentally interdisciplinary approach includes the consideration of historical upheavals in interaction with media technology developments (media history), an alternate construction of reality by changing conditions of perception and sensory activites (philosophical reflection) and transformations of artistic design forms in interplay of the arts and their media (media theory, artistic-scientific reflection /aesthetics). The main focus is given to the areas of intermediality, staging/scenic design, media philosophy, listening culture and acoustic design.
