Roundtable Discussion:
Discussion on the topic ‘Universities and The Future’ with Germanists Dr Adrienne Merritt (CU Boulder), Deborah Fallis, M.A. (LU Hannover), Dr Dîlan Canan Çakir (FU Berlin), Dr Tom Smith (St. Andrews). How does research meet the wider wolrd and help to reframe and rethink solutions to issues inside and outside of the humanities? What role can universities play in the wider discussion? What paths are there to the future?
Re-Shape-Land-Scape Performance:
How can anyone inhabit landscapes that are transforming due to climate change? Re-Shape-Land-Scape is a dance theatre performance, an eco-journey looking for answers to this question. The windswept shores of Norfolk Coast in East Anglia, UK… The historic Panagia Chrysopolitissa Church in Kyrenia in Northern Cyprus… The bustling Wan Chai Reclamation island in Hong Kong… These three locations are historically, politically and geographically diverse landscapes enduring the effects of climate change. Join us as we explore the profound impact of human interaction on these ever-changing terrains through movement in live and digital performance.
Part of the Performing Activism series, this interactive performance will offer opportunities for the audience to participate in moving with the geographical coordinates.
