How do I become a member?

The New Alphabet School is a collaborative format for artistic, curatorial and activist research practices. Over the course of three and a half years and in twelve editions, the School offers a space for practice-based research beyond academic and disciplinary boundaries. Participants of each edition become part of the New Alphabet School community and are invited to contribute to the curation of subsequent editions.

For #Healing (Faju) three online workshops and the sound marathon Transatlantic Sounds will take place for which you can register.
If you would like to attend the sound marathon Transatlantic Sounds on February 4, please send an e-mail to newalphabet@hkw.de. No registration is required to participate in the performative ritual on February 6 and the public program on February 4.
