About the exhibition Toxic Relationships
In this exhibition, ENHANCE ITN doctoral researchers showcase short virtual reality video installations that emerged out of their own empirical and ethnographic fieldwork. The videos work by tracking, rendering, and displaying full-field visual, sonic, and tactile data in a context in which the viewer has full control and is empowered to decide what to look at, listen to, and feel—or which story to experience.
This is a part of the virtual exhibition “Famines in Late Nineteenth-Century India: Politics, Culture, and Environmental Justice”—written and curated by sociologist Naresh Chandra Sourabh and economic historian Timo Myllyntaus.

The physical Ecopolis München 2019 exhibition also included a station for younger visitors. Every station was told as a story for children. After an adult reads the stories to the children, they could draw their impressions on paper at a nearby table. This station was created by Isabelle Hermannstädter.
