The basic philosophical principle of sensualism is that sensations are the essential form of true cognition. In this journey around the dissembled cityscapes of north-east Berlin, landscape architect and urban designer Lena Flamm will guide participants through the hidden magic of linear district heating pipes, abandoned industrial landmarks and small community gardens within huge GDR housing blocks. Over a communal picnic in the wilderness, thoughts about the beauty and potential of the periphery will be exchanged and memorized.

Nach dem philosophischen Prinzip des Sensualismus sind Empfindungen die wichtigste Form der wahren Erkenntnis. Bei dieser Reise durch verborgene Peripherien im Nordosten Berlins wird Landschaftsarchitektin Lena Flamm mit den Teilnehmer*innen die verborgene Magie in linearen Fernwärmeleitungen, verlassenen Industrien und kleinen Gemeinschaftsgärten in großen Plattenbaugebieten aufspüren. Bei einem gemeinsamen Picknick werden Gedanken und Gefühle zur Ästhetik und Aneigbarkeit der peripheren Landschaften ausgetauscht und bewusst gemacht.
