The Landscape Change and Sensory Approaches seminar will take place on 30 April at 16:00 (WEST) via Zoom and in person at Colégio do Espírito Santo, room 105, at the University of Évora. The seminar engages with questions of environmental change, landscape heritage, and methodological innovation, bringing together complementary perspectives on how landscapes are transformed, remembered, and lived. The event will feature two talks: Montado: Ecology, Memory, and Adaptation (by Dr Ana Fonseca), exploring the ecological dynamics of the montado, its adaptive responses to climate change, and the historical evolution and use of its resources; & Blended Sensory Walk: Experiencing Heritage or Fragile Environments and Ambiances with/in Digital Environments (by Prof. Rajko Muršič), a workshop-orientated presentation that invites participants to explore sensory and hybrid approaches to experiencing place, particularly in fragile environments or heritage contexts. Please find attached detailed instructions for the walk. A joint discussion with speakers and attendees (both online and in person) will follow the presentations.
The seminar is organised within the HORIZON-MSCA project “Deep mapping post-disaster becoming: through the silence of a wounded landscape” (DeepLandS – 101205129) in collaboration with Mestrado em Gestão e Valorização do Património Histórico e Cultural (GVPHC) – Erasmus Mundus Joint Master TPTI, and the UNESCO Chair in Intangible Heritage and Traditional Know-How: Linking Heritage. We particularly welcome postgraduate students from the University of Évora and the University of Ljubljana.
