Produced in collaboration with the independent editorial platform entirely dedicated to culture and creativity Canal 180, and filmed on location across Europe, the Bauhaus of the Seas Sails 16-episode series aims to communicate the consortium’s larger aspirations, goals and approaches. More importantly, it aims to inform and inspire citizens directly involved or impacted by these pilots.
The series is split in two seasons, with episodes dropping every month from April to November in 2024 and 2025 – here and on Canal 180’s Youtube channel. Season 1, titled Drop, Ripple, Wave, is composed of conversations where consortium members and external experts discuss each of the eight pilot project typologies – drops. Season 2 will feature the projects’ locations, protagonists and results.
Season 1
Drop, Ripple, Wave
In this season, consortium partner members and experts discuss the concepts, aspirations and goals behind each Bauhaus of the Seas Sails drop. Under the drop, ripple, wave metaphor, drops are focused and localised initiatives developed at the territorial level, which aim to generate a ripple effect. As such, they are more than a project typology, extending from the demonstrator pilot level to the city, region, national and continental levels, thus demonstrating how each pilot is scaled and replicated across time and space.
Episode 1
Multispecies Assemblies
The Zoöp model is an organisational model for cooperation between human and non-human life that safeguards the interests of all zoë (Greek for ‘life’). The Zoöp model makes the interests of nonhuman life part of organisational decision making. In this first episode of Bauhaus of the Seas Sails, Nuno Jardim Nunes (Instituto Superior Técnico) and Klaas Kuitenbrouwer (Nieuwe Instituut) discuss this model and how it can help organizations become more ecologically responsible by having a direct perspective of how their decisions impact other species and ecosystems as a whole when making decisions.
