Dear fellow technology makers and storytellers,

In march 2020 I started a new job as professor in the masters program Spiel&&Objekt <https://spielundobjekt.de//> (Play&&Object), situated in the contemporary puppetry <https://www.hfs-puppe.de/aktuelles> department of Berlin’s performing arts university Ernst Busch <https://www.hfs-berlin.de/>. It’s a new program and our first round of 7 students are currently working on their final projects.

Our open call <https://spielundobjekt.de/bewerbung/> for the next round of students is open now until May 18th!

It’s a 2-year Master of Arts program with courses <https://spielundobjekt.de/kurse/> in:
>> design&technology
>> practice based artistic research
>> speculative objects
>> social architecture
>> cultural management
>> theory & practice

The course contents I’m excited to prepare for future semesters include:
>>>> eTextiles and wearables for participatory performances
>>>> non-human actors and material agency
>>>> making as a means of storytelling

Here you can see and read a bit about who our permanent and visiting faculty <https://spielundobjekt.de/personen/> are.

Our blog and weekend readings <https://spielundobjekt.de/blog/> give an impression of the topics we discuss and the events we attend.

In this interview <https://spielundobjekt.de/2020/03/08/prof-hannah-perner-wilson/> I talk about my own motivations for joining the program and ideas for upcoming curriculum.

!The catch?
Since teaching takes place in a mix of German and English language, attending the program requires advanced german language skills (level B2).
You can find out more details about the application requirements and process here:
