walk, click, scroll is a program framed within Other forms of mediation, the line of thought from which the Education Area of the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina SofÃa investigates mediation as a practice of cultural production.
The program is developed with a learning group whose objective is to analyze the different contemporary approaches to cultural mediation from three nodes:Walkinvestigates the ways of generating knowledge while walking, from what we have called itinerant mediation,Click,curated bydemuse, explores the field of digital mediation, andDisplace, coordinated by the organizationFelipa Manuela, raises dialogues with professionals from Latin America.
From La Liminal we have curated the nodeWalk, in which we will move through some of the dimensions that cross this practice, exploring what happens between the body, space, movement and stories. For this we will have the participation of different artists and groups that have taken walking as a research and creation strategy.
These are the sessions of the Walking program:
Monday March 28, 2022 - Introductory session with La Liminal

With the collected materials, we proposed an analysis based on the use of the different dimensions that make up the urban landscape in order to get closer to how the different issues that are going to be dealt with throughout the following sessions cross our experience of the territory.

Wednesday May 25 and Thursday May 26, 2022WorkshopObserve from the ear, image without imagewithSofia Montenegro​
The artist SofÃa Montenegro proposed that we approach the landscape by observing from the ear to focus on those senses that are usually neglected due to the centrality of sight. By focusing our attention on the soundscape, images begin to appear that are somehow present but not They are accessible through the view. The potential of this evocation questions us about the places from which these images emerge: memory, magic, desire... and invites us to walk on that fertile line between what we call reality and all those other layers that are also giving it shape.
