Training the Senses
Training The Senses is a long-running series of interactive workshops at the intersection of art and science. Each workshop explores a different topic under the guidance of different experts. Since 2016, Training The Senses has brought together a wide range of creators and scientists in training sessions that take a variety of forms: participants join urban flaneurs on walks, explore the relationship between words and smell with neuroscientists and scent specialists, capture extinct movements with dancers and choreographers, or spend an evening with a food designer, composer, surgeon, mosquito breeder or puppeteer.
The sessions focus on acquiring and sharing physicality and knowledge by doing experiments. By stimulating the senses in different ways, participants learn about their environment in a different way. Click below to learn more about Training The Senses.
