FeralAIR Documentations 2019 2020 2022 2023 2024

The Feral AIR –  is a Feral Lab Network cooperation hosted by Schmiede Hallein enabled by  Creative Europe.

Background Info:  ###########################

Rewilding Cultures builds on the solid ground established by the Feral Labs Network and extends the our lab based network by adding two more feral content pillars. The pillars being: Residencies and Knowledge.

Feral Residency programmes will support and extend Feral formats, and will be a cornerstone for growing deeper community ties by working with our local communities or hubs. They will enable continuation of work started within Feral Labs and will augment the capacities of the Feral Labs.

Feral Knowledge will enhance the Feral Nodebooks and pair it with the internationally renowned art-science-technology conference series TTT (Taboo-Transgression-Transcendence in Art & Science). Rewilding Cultures will enable the organizers of the TTT conference series to create a new series of events, based on the Feral Labs model. The proposal is to organize TTTlabs, as annual satellite events of TTT, interdisciplinary research incubators and thinking tanks dedicated to bending the boundaries of art, science and technology while exploring alternative sources of communicating knowledge.

Both mix and offer space for theory and practice, both are places of reflection, discussion and speculation and are crucial dissemination tools, cultivating and rewilding our (Feral) activities.

Feral Lab Network was outstanding and therefore we are super thankful to Creative Europe  for letting us continue with the Rewilding Cultures project.
