“What about Reality?” 2025, the third edition of the "School of Experience", an educational format for students from various departments at different NRW universities and interested members of the public. Under the title "What about Reality?", this year's edition is dedicated to virulent questions about the reality and relevance of our physical live experiences in times of polycrisis. In an interplay of different disciplines, event formats and workshops, the space for reflection on contemporary (performance) art will be expanded and not just an intellectual approach, but a comprehensive, personal experience will be trained that focuses equally on a cognitive and physical-sensory understanding.
