For this session we have invited\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.umu.se\/en\/staff\/annika-bunz\/\">Annika B\u00fcnz<\/a>, Associate Professor and Docent in Museology, Department of Culture and Media Studies at Ume\u00e5 University, to present an experiment within the UTRI funded project Ecologizing the Museum by Annika B\u00fcnz and Carola Nordb\u00e4ck. The experiment\u00a0<em>Gallery Spirals &amp; Intertwinings \/ An exhibition in a stairwell<\/em>\u00a0has the objectives to problematise current narrative practices in museums, to explore new ways of storytelling in museums and to explore the potential of this room in creating narratives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>B\u00fcnz will also present her ongoing project&nbsp;<em>The Universe, the Cancer, and I<\/em>&nbsp;which is a reflection on how all living and non-living things are intertwined in cycles of birth, life, and death, and how the boundaries between my perceived Self and an Illness in my body dissolve and merge with everything around me. It is an exploratory experiment grounded in environmental humanities, blue humanities, and ecocriticism, with the aim of finding new ways to understand and describe the world we live in and are interwoven with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.umu.se\/en\/staff\/annika-bunz\/\"><strong>Annika B\u00fcnz<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;became interested in museum exhibitions, as a medium for communication, already as an undergraduate in archaeology. In her dissertation on Swedish archaeological exhibitions, B\u00fcnz developed a method for analyzing four-dimensional multimodal storyscapes. Since then, she has continued to develope theory and methods for multisensory analyses of the many dimensions of storytelling practices in museums, for exaple at maritime museums. Over the years, her focus has shifted from intersectional analyses to posthumanist and ecocritical perspectives. Today, she is an associate professor and lecturer in museology at Ume\u00e5 University, where she is responsible for teaching multimodal communication and exhibition production, among other subjects. In her latest project, together with Carola Nordb\u00e4ck, B\u00fcnz worked with interactive research, involving museum staff in exploring how cultural history museums can find new ways to narrate a world where humanity is intertwined with the more-than-human.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Annika B\u00fcnz, Associate Professor and Docent in Museology, Department of Culture and Media Studies, will present her project Ecologizing the Museum with Carola Nordb\u00e4ck.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1500,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","categories":[66],"tags":[],"people":[],"class_list":["post-1499","programme","type-programme","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-seminar"],"acf":{"related_svp":"","related_wg":[{"ID":191,"post_author":"1","post_date":"2021-08-03 09:07:00","post_date_gmt":"2021-08-03 07:07:00","post_content":"<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>The Curatorial Research group meets regularly to discuss curating contemporary art as research process and as a form of knowledge production.
