Sonnets for Science: Performance & Reception With Book Artist

After the workshop (12:30-14h), we will celebrate with a performance reception (17-18h) as part of the Sonnets for Science portion of the Re:Re:interpretation program.  Please register for both the workshop and the performance reception seperately. 

The performance reception 17-18h will be with the book artist Anna Weilhartner and Science for Sonnets authors, Bauke Steenhuisen and Jeroen Manders, who will give a collaborative performance. Contributors from the three workshops will also be invited to read their scientific-inspired poetry and show off their books from the workshop. The program will also contain a small update and talk from book artist, Anna Weilhartner. Drinks and snacks provided.

Biographies:

Bauke Steenhuisen likes to believe he invented the scientific sonnet, but he probably didn’t. After his well-received TEDxDelft performance about the power of poetry, he started to versify theses and dissertations in the form of sonnets. In daily life, Bauke is a TU Delft alumn and assistant professor in the field of infrastructure governance.

Jeroen Manders is, among too many things to mention, an opera singing, acrobat as well as poetic engineer. Jeroen approaches his sonnets from outside science. (Photo by Hans Dunlop)

TU Delft alumnus Anna Weilhartner is a practicing artist working mainly with artists’ books. She graduated with an MFA from Oslo National Academy of the Arts in 2022. See more of Anna's work @ weilhartneranna.weebly.com
