living room studio is an alternative space for co-authored learning, making, and thinking.
currently based in Switzerland, our work began in 2024 as a communal inquiry for creative research at the Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts, Harvard University.
we make living room as an act of archival activation, relational worldmaking, and critical curiosity.
our pedagogy
archival activation
teachings that sustain engagement with intellectual ancestors across time + space
relational worldmaking
collaborations through entanglement with humans + beyond-humans
critical curiosity
research, thinking, and discernment that is perpetually in-process

featured course
c.1.3 publishing the archive
a course for artists, researchers, writers, designers, and cultural workers interested in the (im)possibilities of archival research — not only as a method of looking at the past, but as a practice of worldmaking.
Archives are arrangements of power. they shape what can be ‘known’, what can be cited, what circulates as ‘fact’, and therefore the stories, materials + matters with which futures are built.
for those of you who are invested in building alternative futures, archival practices are a crucial site of intervention. a dialogue that attempts to stay with pasts–presents–futures all at once.
thinking-with: Toni Morrison, June Jordan, Chris Marker + more

upcoming workshop
w.1.2 rituals of technology
date: february 28th at 18:00 CET | duration: 2.5 hours
how do we intentionally dialogue with technologies? this session will investigate historical chapters when technological inventions re-shaped artistic abilities and simultaneously raised ethical considerations. introducing reflective approaches for formalizing technological use within your creative practice, and how we may relate to machines with greater skill and attention to detail. what a typewriter is to poetry; what hand illustration is to animation; what 18mm is to filmmaking.
thinking-with: Robert Duncan, Hayao Miyazaki, Ana Vaz
