I am so so happy to invite you to an event that I‘ve been planning since last summer. Next week it will finally happen and my Raccoon Team from Japan is almost on their way! 👣🐾👣 It will be fun to share a conference table again - this time in germany @hfbkhamburg :-)
*re-story-ation* brings together some of my favorite thinkers-artists-scholars-practioners whose work I admire deeply and which inspires and encourages me everyday to go on with my own research~practice.
Join us for a day full of relating with, thinking with, walking with - attempting to engage beyond the margins of anthropocentric framings.
Stories about raccoons, multispecies communities, an ancestral sea and the local mill pond Kuhmühle will be shared by
Antonia Ulrich @terueyamauchi@jesmarullrich Bettina Uppenkamp @beings.phd.art.practice
You can find all information on the @hfbkhamburg website > calendar tab
***********
The symposium invites us to consider artistic research as a relational practice of storytelling. Getting involved with the lives and stories of animals, trees, or the sea changes the temporalities and modes of research and art practice. Which active forms of engagement can open up spaces for mutual learning? What kinds of relationships emerge through accompanying and listening? Which stories do these relationships hold, and how can they be told?
Taking up ecologist Gary Nabhan’s reflection : „The restoration we need to do is also a re-story-ation“ — the event gathers different perspectives and approaches that seek to tell more than only human stories. Together with the guests and participants we also want to discuss questions of responsibility and limits: How can these relationships become reciprocal? How to deal with the tension between relation and representation?
The PhD program „being(s)“ invites to this one day event with Talks, a Film Screening and a performative walk.
Open for everyone, No registration needed.

one of those who came to be - for the annual show ^（＾ν＾） - or for other reasons? krrrr ..
After all, what if the animals are neither present nor represented by the image? What if they live in our heads waiting to jump out and populate our surroundings?
)Or are we just desperate for their company?(
Questions about the relationships between observing and playing / presence and pretending are central to this collection of materials. It is an invitation to engage with your own internal animations of the “animal” – highlighting the magical skill to animate in our minds, to project life into matter.
The visual research is part of the eponymous PhD project, which examines the dramaturgical, linguistic, and aesthetic articulations of so-called “animals” in storytelling - particularly in animation - and how these representations shape human–animal relationships. Many appearances of non-human animals tend to be very finished, very much a species, very cute and very anthropomorphized. This assemblage, by contrast, is interested with more open and provisional forms ranging from snow figures to raw 3d files. It is a personal investigation into the joyful processes of gathering traces of living beings around myself.
digging up some cute traditions of making ^animals^ for the upcoming annual show at @hfbkhamburg ~~ say hi in R214 and also see the amazing work and research by @pablotorresgomez_@michalibaror and maria ignatenko
what’s the matter with the raccoons ?? ~ weil so viele fragen ~
(and i get it, it’s a little wild)
~ hier ein versuch die fäden zu sammeln ~
Basically, it all started when i found out about the correlation of a cute anime chracter from the 70’s and the import of ‘pet’ raccoons to japan. today raccoons are specified as invasive alien species and extermination projects are undertaken.
raccoons in japan are just as polarizing as in germany ~ beings that seem to spark so many intense emotions in humans. a sliding scale ranging from blank hatred to pure joy - accompanied by a peculiar mix of entertainment and an intuitively felt alikeness. in the last 3 years i somewhat became a self-thought raccoonologist and transformed this extensive research into my currently started phd project >more-than-human drama< at @hfbkhamburg that investigates the influence of literary and filmic animal characters on human-animal-relationships.
i couldn’t be happier to have found the best collaborator, co-directress and co-raccoonologist @terueyamauchi <3 together we have let ourselves be guided by raccoons and anyone related to them.
thank you raccoons for bringing us in contact with:
* hunters and peach trees in ukiha
* rice farmers, (invasive) snails, sick cats, artists and public servants in Tagawa
* apples, researchers and animal activists on a conference in Aomori
* … the same researchers and animal activists at a buddhist ceremony for wildlife spirits in Kyoto
* a painter, ducks, electric dogs and the raccoons of @kspca_douai in yokohama + kanagawa
* wildlife photographers and a very particular shiba dog in fukuoka
* waschechte waschbär-profis in kassel and berlin
and so so many more !
terue and me constantly shapeshifted from <camera person> to <journalist> to <colleague> to <conference speaker> … a stretch or a flex of *artistic research* ?
contact me if you want to know more or chat abot raccoons, i will never get bored ✌︎('ω')✌︎
special thank you to mieko kawamichi and sayoko yamada for your amazing support and the beautiful exchange 😭

We’re happy to invite you to the next edition of the Treasures film and video screening series.
Treasures #2 brings together a programme of short films and two (video) installations. Broad in variety of form and content, the featured works are linked by the theme of being shaped by given structures and finding one’s way in or around them. Recurring aspects include moving through urban space and notions of concealing and revealing. How to capture and share the treasure of a fleeting moment?

loved teaching and learning with all the amazing students and staff of @hfs_puppe@spiel_und_objekt
🐈 it was a pleasure to participate in LOST CAT @kolonin_arvika curated by Sanne Pawelzyk and Andreas Arndt. It gave @_caspar___ and me the playful opportunity to combine our mediums and test some *drawing-to-3D* tools to help find mjau-mjau - out there. the same day we encountered an old feline friend on our hike 🌼🐈🌼
LOST CAT gathered so many beautiful works by many many cat loving artists 🥹 if you are as cat-obsessed and want to see all the works check out this lil video > /watch?v=IbqcNp31a-g&feature=youtu.be
