RCSC: Meet Our Fellows

This summer semester we are welcoming two inspiring visiting researchers at our centre:

Prof. Dr. Jörg Metelmann is Associate Professor at the University of St Gallen, Switzerland, specializing in Social Imaginaries and Utopian Thought. Following up on his widely-received book Imagineering: Wie Zukunft gemacht wird (2020), he will continue work on various projects during his stay, including one on aesthetics and the Anthropocene.

Sarah Bird is an artist-scholar researcher and PhD candidate at the University of California, Santa Cruz, focusing on relations with trees in the more-than-human world at a time of ecological crisis. She is currently collaborating with our centre on a site-specific installation for our conference "Arboreal Entanglements: Human, Nonhuman, More-than-Human". 

Kicking off their fellowship this summer semester, Jörg and Sarah will speak about their work at a "Meet Our Fellows" session on April 23, 4–5 pm in the Loggia area on the GCSC's 2nd floor. Everyone is invited to drop by for a chat, coffee, and cookies!
