Connecting Waters, Bridging Perspectives
Fluid Interdisciplinarities is a three-day festival which brings together researchers, artists, and practitioners to unpack water-related research and practices from October 23-25, 2025. The diverse program will feature academic sessions and public events, including film screenings, walkshops and artistic interventions to foster knowledge exchange between science, art, and society.
Fluid Interdisciplinarities will take a special focus on rivers, such as the Spree, the Maas, the Brahmaputra, the Magdalena, the Nile, the Danube, and the Panke. These rivers will not remain one-dimensional and abstracted topics, but be enlivened through rich discussions, collaborative and participatory activities. This will be the focus of House of Rivers on Saturday October 25th, which is designedwith showcasing interactive discussions and artistic projects on water session.
The event is organized by the Integrative Research Institute on Transformations of Human-Environment Systems (IRI THESys) and artist Regina Hügli (One Body of Water), in cooperation with the IHE Delft Institute for Water Education, the University of Montpellier, the Knowledge Exchange with Society team and the Tieranatomisches Theatre at the ZfK.
