This is not a Gardening Book | Wander M. van Baalen, Jana Thierfelder, Patrick Müller (eds.) [E-Book PDF]
The cultivation of transdisciplinary practices. A work by many
This is not a Gardening Book collects essays and glossary entries that open new pathways for doing more-than-disciplinary educational work. The contributors to this volume – students, scholars, and artists from a diverse range of intellectual and disciplinary backgrounds – explore the transformative potential of education that does not stop at disciplinary and institutional borders. The book is meant to be taken up as a “tool to think with”. May it serve as a catalyst for thinking about and experimenting with new modalities of transdisciplinary teaching and learning.

Die Spekulationen über die Mehrdeutigkeit von Kunstwerken und deren Potenzial, sich in verschiedene Bedeutungshorizonte einzuweben, sind vielfältig und zahlreich. Das «Wind Tunnel Deck»-Kartenspiel nimmt diese Beobachtung ernst. Es gibt den Konzepten, Kräften, Akteur:innen, Artefakten und Happenings, die seit 2012 rund um den Wind Tunnel von Florian Dombois und seiner Forschungsgruppe an der ZHdK operieren, eine Stimme und fokussiert ihre noch offenen Potenziale.

This publication is an experimental and collaborative exploration of texture from an artistic, design and conceptual angle. Based on a year-long research process between Zürich and Hong Kong the book seeks to give an account of processes of texturing as practice and material effect in urban environments.
