TU-Dortmund (Master Cultural Analysis and Cultural Mediation Project Seminar): Production of digital video clips with students for science-communication in social networks and in museums in cooperation with the LWL-Industriemuseum TextilWerk Bocholt. As a small team, we developed concepts for video shows in which we presented current research of the cultural anthropology of textiles and fashion studies to a broader audience. Excerpts from my work can be found, for example, in this video: Fashion and Death or here: Hipsters.
Our self-produced clips were released in spring/summer 2022, some were also shown in presentations and exhibitions. All videos and more information about the project can be found on our website: www.modeblicke.de

This contribution explores the resonances and connections between body-dress-sound. The question is how narratives of death are expressed in pop culture, fashion, and sound performances through bodies, textiles, and sounds.
