Aqualiteracies emerge from the desire to relate to the waters through sensation and imagination and with a willingness to learn to receive, interpret and recode the information and knowledge they offer us. The approach to aquatic literacies emerges from the intention to establish ecocentric communication channels and meanings from these communications. Thinking and feeling with water, rather than simply about it, is an attempt to build epistemic and affective bridges to the knowledge generated and offered by water. It is in itself a willingness to align myself with an aquatic perspective that recognizes waters not only as resources but, above all, as sources.
Aqualiteracies is a research in flux that arises from sensitive experiences and direct exchange with water; it is offered as a living framework that can grow or de-grow in response and responsiveness to a variety of circumstances and contexts in which water, through different bodies, is the source of information.
Aqualiteracies has taken shape as two published texts in Spanish and English with entre-rios and Coven Berlin.
Also, several experimental conferences with Neue Nachbarschaft Moabit, COVEN Berlin, Moabit Mountain College and Errant Bodies
And a five-day workshop with La Escuela and participants from all over Latin America. Here is a collective repository of some of these experiments generated during this workshop.
