A review of the media installation ‘Becoming River’:
From 13-16 May 2025, the Eucor MobiLab Roadshow made its first stop 2025 in Bürgerpark in Offenburg and became a container cinema as part of the SHORTS Film Festival. The installation ‘Becoming River’ by the Clim’Ability Care research team from Offenburg University of Applied Sciences was shown in the cinema. The team presented the first results from the past two years of artistic research in the Murg Valley. On display was a 2-channel installation that turned a floating probe into a river oracle.
The juxtaposition with documentary film footage of life in, on and around the Murg gave the audience a special impression of the river’s existence.
The cinema container was located directly at the Billetsches Schlösschen in the Bürgerpark and was framed by the Mühlbach stream flowing past. It was a place that invited visitors to immerse themselves, discover, get involved and exchange ideas. Many citizens took the opportunity and stopped by the container cinema during the four days.
Make a note of it! The next stops of the MobiLab with the participation of Clim’Ability Care teams are on the following days:
- Freiburg: 22-25 July 2025
- Strasbourg: 1-3 October 2025
- Mulhouse: 9-11 October 2025
