Collecting | Leuphana Opening Week 2023

www.leuphana.de/openingweek
Studies at Leuphana College begin with the Opening Week. The Opening Week is both a practical workshop and a forum for ideas. During the Opening Week, you will gain a first impression of how academic work, social practice and responsibility, as well as general educational goals are combined at the College. For seven days, you will be the centre of attention: the campus belongs to you.
Autographs and weather reports, paintings and sacred bones, memories and even votes or data: what is it that we don't collect? While collecting can be a harmless hobby or a sophisticated cultural technique, it is never a simple or straightforward matter. Every day we are confronted with stories of museums grappling with the colonial legacies of their object collections, Big Tech companies being scrutinized for the personal data they collect, or emerging health and environmental crises that cannot be managed without expansive and real-time data collection. But what are we really collecting when we collect? How do these practices come to shape the world we live in? During Leuphana’s OPENING WEEK 2023, students get to the bottom of collecting.
