Description (eng)
In collaboration with participants of the Lobau Bleibt! protest camp "Wüste", this short film explores how material and knowledge are socially intertwined in the infrastructural reproduction of an occupational space at the outskirts of Vienna.
WÜSTE – BUILDING AGAINST DESTRUCTION (2022) was made by Alex Hähnlein, Özgür Ipekci, and Tihomir Crnjak, in collaboration with participants in the Lobau action group during the Ma course "Visual Ethnographies of Science", taught at the Department of Science and Technology Studies (STS) and the Department of Cultural and Social Anthropology (KSA) of the University of Vienna. The course was taught by Sarah Davies and Sanderien Verstappen, with tutoring of Viktoria Paar.
