HYDROUS'08
HYDROUS '0 8 is an interdisciplinary scholarly roundtable and arts event that is devoted to shifts in contemporary water governance.
HYDROUS'08 brings together new studies
and cultural works undertaken by scholars and artists working at the
intersection of science and technology studies and water governance
studies.
Sponsored by the NWO Shifts in Governance Program, HYDROUS'08
is an event organized by Katie Vann and Paul Wouters of the Virtual
Knowledge Studio for the Humanities and Social Sciences and held in
conjunction with the bi-annual meetings of the Society for Social
Studies of Science (4S) and the European Association for Social Science
and Technology. HYDROUS'08 is conceived as an occasion for sharing the
ideas and techniques of scholars and artists who are working at the
intersection of science, technology and water governance issues. The
aim is to gather together and contribute to the formation of what is
now a nascent zone of governance research and artistic practice. The
event is free and open to 4S/EASST participants and the public. Hydrous
will be held in the performance spaces of V2_ Institute for the
Unstable Media, Rotterdam central.
