Regional Museum of Natural Science – Conference Hall, lower ground floor
>>>4 PM Lecture by Siegfried Zielinski Variantology – Thoughts on Experiment in
Unstable Times.
Siegfried Zielinski describes the tactical approach that he calls Variantology. The idea is based on the concept of variance as a specific strategy for dealing with a world in constant change. The approach finds itself at home in both the scientific and artistic fields, where an initial idea, like a musical theme, is interpreted and varied over and over again to reach a desired result.
