We will explore the idea of proposing tactile experiences, with a focus on building and expanding multi-sensory consciousness that correspond to contemporary pedagogical practices. Participants will be introduced to variety of ways of developing and increasing material literacy by looking at existing elements of educational spaces as textual objects that have the capacity to engage, providing deep sensorial experiences and training the senses.

We will focus on ways of proposing the objects at hand, with a focus on movement, aesthetic pause and understandings of dynamic peripheries.
