Dear Ladies and Gentlemen, dear friends,

With this newsletter we warmly invite you to the next Salon für Ästhetische Experimente at Haus der Kulturen der Welt. On 10th July, our fellows Zeynep Tuna and Nino Klingler will show their satirical web-series “Kanal 82” at Salon #5 “It's ok not to laugh: Trying out comedy as a critical strategy in the context of Turkey“. This semester and the following one, the Berlin University of the Arts offers as part of Studium Generale the seminar “Hintergründe” that gives insight into the artistic processes behind the scenes of the salons.

We continue with congratulating our current fellow Marco Donnarumma on receiving the Award of Distinction in the category Digital Musics & Sound Art at Prix Ars Electronica 2017. Our fellow Kerstin Ergenzinger is taking part in two exhibitions: “unReal” at HeK in Basel and “tracing“ at Haus am Kleistpark in Berlin.

Then follow news from our alumni Stefan Hayn, Tanja Ostojić and Agnes Meyer-Brandis, as well as information on the symposium “Out of the Blue” hosted by BAS.
