SEMINAR LECTURE
Summer semester course Between Walking Art and Walking as a Method in the Bch program of the IfEE Institute für Europäische Ethnologie Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin. This course explores artistic and ethnographic methods of walking for social science research in the fieldwork. In this course we will explore Walking Art and its relationship to the methods of walking explored by the social sciences and geography. We will bring the act of walking into play as an esthetic and performative practice and experiment with the relationship between body/mind and space/time. In this course we will engage with walking by exploring different methods from the social sciences, geography and art. These walks will be conducted along Berlin's streets discovering routes that have been culturally and artistically significant. The structure of the course will be a 'mobile lab" in which we will discuss and explore methods and theories in the IfEE classroom and in the urban space of Berlin.

SEMINAR LECTURE
Winter semester course with the scholar and artist Persenofi Myrtsou "Making sense of culture(s) through Art". Course on the relation between artistic practices and ethnography, in the context of the X-Research group of the Berlin Alliance University. Financed by Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung Berlin. This course offered an opportunity to explore shared methods in social science and artistic research. During the semester participants had the opportunity to critically respond to existing literature, meet scholars and artists who are applying ethnographic and artistic methods in their practice. We also experimented hands-on with hybrid methods, such as sensory walking, soundscape recordings, creative nonfictional field notes and performative autoethnography. Participants had opportunity to publish their contribution in a sound-piece radio in NomadicRadio Berlin and multimodal exhibition in Studio106LA, Los Angeles U.S.A .

SEMINAR LECTURE
Course in the program Micro-curatorials at SACO / Contemporary Art Biennial, Antofagasta, Chile. Course Curating in migratory zones. The course aimed to introduce, reflect and discuss processes of sensitization in migrant and vulnerable territories, from an anthropological and ethical vision on how to collaborate with the other from a decolonial and pluralistic perspective. The overall goals were to artistically and ethically sensitize the curator on how to collaborate respectfully with communities creating social/artistic projects from a postcolonial and decolonial point of view. It was based on ethnographic strategies for an adequate, collaborative, positional and non-extractivist approach.
