OCEAN / UNI is an art–activism–law–science learning initiative, online, tuition free, and open to the general public. The curriculum invites fluid thinking with the Ocean as a way to move towards more amphibious actions, beyond the binaries of land and sea. Aiming to complement and enhance land-based understanding of the Earth, it covers a wide range of ecological, political, aesthetic, ethical, and scientific topics around the realities and futures of the Ocean.
The Curriculum aims to provide students, researchers, and the public with wide-ranging and accessible explorations through regular live sessions, reading groups, small-scale workshops or activations, collective visual notebooks, an online archive of gathered knowledge and materials, and through the ocean comm/uni/ty.
OCEAN / UNI explores not only new educational formats, but also ways of connecting thinkers,
artists, research, and activist groups.
