With Prof. Dr. Hubert Wiggering and the sound artist Kurt Holzkämper: Peatlands are actually inaudible. But the interdisciplinary MONAS Collective around the sound artist Kurt Holzkämper and the scientist Prof. Dr. Hubert Wiggering transforms the mystical moors into living protagonists. With innovative microphones and sensors, natural sounds and data from plants and greenhouse gases are made audible. These sounds, combined with video and light installations, create a unique audiovisual landscape that makes Moore come alive in a completely new way.

The recipe for... Tomorrow's flavours details: speakers, location and date, partners and  funding

What will it taste like tomorrow? Even today, the issue of food additives, excess sugar or other undesirable ingredients means that our food choices often end with a long analysis of the ingredients on the label. So what about food produced in a lab or with a 3D printer as a healthy and sustainable answer? This is one of the topics we will discuss on 14 March from 18:30 during the adult event The recipe for... Tomorrow's flavours!
