The Schaufler Lab@TU Dresden as a platform for explorative formats

The Schaufler Lab takes the language and practice of experiment and laboratory seriously. Science historian Hans-Jörg Rheinberger writes: "research systems are tinkered arrangements that are not set up for the purpose of repetitive operation but for the continuous re-emergence of unexpected events. Experimentation, as a machine for making the future, has to engender unexpected events." Our aim is to create such events by experimenting with locations, intersectionality and different media.

At the same time, the comprehensible discussion of scientific topics in exchange with a broad public is a central concern of the Schaufler Lab@TU Dresden. Experimental and participatory event formats reflect our expanded understanding of transfer and communication.
