Farocki’s Living Room

In the first edition of the Rosa Mercedes online journal, Marianna Maruyama interviews some of the people who took part in the “Farocki Now” Academy and speaks with a few of the institute’s neighbors in the silent green Kulturquartier. The living room is a space for conversation and contemplation, a room situated at the heart of the home, and a place to think from within.

A full transcript of the audio journal is accessible here.

This journal was realized within the framework of the “Farocki Now” Academy, which took place from October 18-21, 2017, during the Harun Farocki Retrospective in Berlin. The full program and the schedule of the academy are accessible here.
