MIGRATION, MEDIA & ECOLOGY - SUMMER SCHOOL - MALTA, 8-12 June 2020
This training school enables participants to understand the relation between media, migration and ecology, through frames of creative knowledge practices and artistic research. Participants will be undertaking public study of migration, media and ecology through theoretical, historical and empirical analyses, along fieldwork visits, artistic and practice-led research, and the production of (counter-)histories and (counter-)narratives. The Training School will take place in Malta, an island and country where the urgencies of interrelationships between migration, media and ecology are tangible and materially transformative. The programme will take place June 8-12th, 2020, and is co-organised by the Global Emergent Media (GEM) Lab (Concordia University), Critical Media Lab (Fachhochschule Basel), and the University of Malta, in partnership with MUZA and Spazju Kreattiv within the framework of the COST Action “European Forum for Advanced Practices” (CA18136), by Working Group 1 (Special Interest Group for Contexts). Participants will interact with and learn from scholars and practitioners in the fields of art, activism, design, policy, media and critical social theory, and develop collaborative research and creation projects related to political-ecological migratory dynamics.
