Workshopping videos (5/6): Visualising the workshop

In this particular workshop the philosophers Erik Reitveld and Ludger van Dijk explored the skill of workshopping itself. Participants were invited to reflect on the activities leading up to our workshop (e.g. their travels, their meals, their participation in workshops the day before, etc.). During the workshop they then drew on participant’s insights to together visualize the process of workshopping – including the process of visualizing itself. They specifically wanted to focus on how to think of a participant’s activities changing the flows of materiality and how material flows change the activities that the participants engage in. In visualizing such a process in different ways, they were also interested in seeing what tensions emerge in the process, such as those between learning and doing, abstractions and concretizations, philosophy and visualizations.
