    Critical by Design? Genealogies, Practices, Positions
    (transcript, 2022) Mareis, Claudia; Greiner-Petter, Moritz; Renner, Michael
    In its constructive and speculative nature, design has the critical potential to reshape prevalent socio-material realities. At the same time, design is inevitably normative, if not often violent, as it stabilises the past, normalises the present, and precludes just and sustainable futures. The contributions rethink concepts of critique that influence the field of design, question inherent blind spots of the discipline, and expand understandings of what critical design practices could be. With contributions from design theory, practice and education, art theory, philosophy, and informatics, »Critical by Design?« aims to question and unpack the ambivalent tensions between design and critique.

    Media Labs – Medienlabore als gestalterische Experimentier- und Forschungsräume
    (Christoph Merian Verlag, 2017) Mareis, Claudia; Allen, Jamie; Langkilde, Kirsten [in: Poetry of the Real]
    The contribution deals with ongoing research projects and methods being employed at the Academy of Art and Design’s Critical Media Lab and puts them into the context of current Media-Lab discussions such as the recently launched initiative “What’s a Media Lab” by Darren Wershler, Jussi Parikka and Lori Emerson, or the recently published book “New Laboratories” (De Gruyter 2016) by Charlotte Klonk of the BWG Cluster of Excellence in Berlin. These discourses at the interface of scholarly, scientific-technical and, above all, artistic research, focus, on the one hand, on situated practices and methods of experimentation and, on the other, address the hybridization and problematization of disciplinary and institutional knowledge and production spaces.

    Why Is It So Hard To Describe Experience? Why Is It So Hard To Experience Description?
    (MIT Press, 2016) Allen, Jamie; Bruder, Johannes; Mareis, Claudia; Latour, Bruno [in: Reset Modernity!]
    The Reset Modernity! exhibition was collaboratively designed and curated by a group consisting of people from the aIMe Research Team, the Critical Media Lab of the Academy of Art and Design FhnW in Basel, and the ZKM | Center for Art and Media Karlsruhe. Invited to contribute their thoughts on this process to this catalogue, Jamie Allen, Claudia Mareis, and Johannes Bruder of the Critical Media Lab have opted to trace and reflect on the far from equilibrium entanglements that emerge between the various modes of history and tradition, scholarly inscription and description, experimental design practices, and impossible scenographies in such processes. The authors describe the practice and thinking of the Critical Media Lab (Basel), dedicated to continuous questioning and critique that is “associated with more, not with less, with multiplication, not subtraction” (Latour, “Why Has Critique” 248), intertwining praxis-led art and design research with historical and theoretical reflection.
