On January 8 and 9, a workshop on the topic of science slams will take place with the participation of the WoC GradNet, the GRK Contradiction Studies and MAPEX. Participants will learn how to present their own research topic on stage in an exciting talk and make it accessible to a lay audience in an understandable way. The workshop will be led by Dr. Julia Offe and Andreas Laurenz Meier from scienceslam.de.
“Living in contradictions is what we experience every day. Why do we know so little about it?”
Gisela Febel
“The imperative of non-contradiction generally produces a coherence in thought that is often at odds with social complexities.”
Yan Suarsana
“If you think that acts of contradicting someone always need to point to better solutions, you haven’t really understood the idea of democratic critique.”
Martin Nonhoff
“Contradiction becomes real where someone names contradiction.”
Ingo H. Warnke
“Michel Foucault says: “Where there is power, there is resistance, and […] this resistance is never in a position of exteriority in relation to power” (History of Sexuality I, The Will to Knowledge, 1976, p. 95)”
