10 AGO. 2024 · In this special episode of The Department of Useful Art, we look at art in the context of science outreach and a performance called Colours of Quantum Frontiers. Follow the artists on their journey through labs, concepts and matter waves on a quest to create a new kind of art and science collaboration.
Featuring interviews with composer Michael Berentsen, choreographer Niels Weijer, scientists Dennis Rätzel and Gregor Pieplow, and researchers at the institutes of the QuantumFrontiers Cluster of Excellence: Dorothee Tell, Fiona Kirk, and Benjamin Knispel. The music used in this episode was created in the performance by Michael Berentsen as composer/conductor and Niels Weijer and Mike O’Connor as performers. Mastering and editing by Hannah Alongi. This episode was made possible with support from QuantumFrontiers.
More photos and a video of the performance can be found here: https://www.quantumfrontiers.de/en/current/events/colours-of-quantum-frontiers
2 FEB. 2023 · Ever wonder just what goes into making a delicious beer? Ayumi Matsuzaka, a Japanese artist based in Berlin, went beyond the usual home brew process in her 2015 work Future Beer, Berlin Cycle. Because it's not just about the ingredients you use, but what went into growing those ingredients.
In this episode Summer chats with Ayumi about closing nutrient cycles, the power of disgust, and the difference between art and business. And Cory and Summer look at the work's playfullness, how it incorporates non-human participants, and the right time to drink beer in a closet. Also featuring Cristal Peck, a brewer and biologist, and Stefan Riekeles, curator of the Dortmund Cycle.

19 ENE. 2023 · Slowly but surely the names of the victims are starting to become an integral part of protests against far-right extremism and police brutality. But what about the names of those who were murdered over two decades ago? And what if most people in the country they were killed in don't know how to pronounce them?
Takdir. Die Anerkennung is one artist's response to this ongoing problem. A participatory performance that's part language lesson and part collective ritual, it's the subject of our conversation with Stuttgart-based artist Ülkü Süngün.
