== Description (EN) ==
"Shared Habitats II" (as an extension and deepening of the Shared Habitats project) understands our habitat as one in which we are not alone: we share it with countless fellow beings near and far, with other living beings, things, machines, and artifacts. Our well-being is built on an atmosphere created over epic periods of time by the action of these beings, which is not divisible but shared destiny.

In the project we align artistic action and ideological reflection with possible new forms of coexistence between human and non-human actors. In experiments, actions, interventions, artifacts, designs will be tried out and evaluated.

In the module we want to produce construction kits, sample catalogs, istallations, manuals, recipes, action plans, apparatuses, game plans or other forms of proposals that help to make our civilization sustainable, thriving and peaceful. 

=== Description (DE) ===
Handlungsstrategien und Techniken für ein Shared Habitat

“Shared Habitats II” (als Verlängerung und Vertiefung des Projektes Shared Habitats)versteht unseren Lebensraum als ein Habitat, in dem wir nicht alleine sind: wir teilen es mit unzähligen Wesensgenossen nah und fern, mit anderen Lebewesen, Dingen, Maschinen und Artefakten. Unser Wohlergehen baut auf eine Atmosphäre auf, die über epische Zeiträume durch das Wirken dieser Wesen entstanden ist, die nicht teilbar, sondern gemeinsames Schicksal ist.

Im Projekt orientieren wir künstlerisches Handeln und weltanschauliche Reflektion an möglichen neuen Formen des Zusammenlebens von menschlichen und nicht-menschlichen Akteuren. In Experimenten, Aktionen, Eingriffen, Artefakten werden Entwürfe ausprobiert und evaluiert.

Im Modul wollen wir Baukästen, Musterkataloge, Installationen, Handbücher, Rezepte, Aktionspläne, Apparate, Spielpläne oder andere Formen von Vorschlägen produzieren, welche helfen, unsere Zivilisation nachhaltig, gedeihlich und friedvoll zu gestalten.
