Cosmogrammatics is a growing repository for experimental fieldwork practices. It brings together students, artists, and researchers to explore how we observe, document, and communicate knowledge—across disciplines, media, and formats.

Today, fieldwork is no longer confined to a single site or moment. It unfolds across layered geographies and timescales, through relational practices that span physical terrains, digital infrastructures, and archival traces. Whether through writing, sound, drawing, film, or conversation, fieldwork emerges as a patchy and contingent process—shaped by the tools we use, the positions we inhabit, and the collaborations we cultivate.

Cosmogrammatics engages this expanded understanding of the field by supporting research practices that are situated, multimodal, and open to experimentation. It asks: What counts as a field? How do media and methods participate in knowledge-making? What forms of publication can reflect the complexity of the research process itself?

Part lab, part publishing studio, Cosmogrammatics offers a space to test and share emerging research formats. It fosters interdisciplinary exchange and supports low-threshold contributions that challenge conventional boundaries of academic publishing.

The platform was initiated with support from Johannes Bruder, Critical Media Lab Basel and Hackers & Designers, and is currently run by Michaela Büsse (TU Dresden), with design by Moritz Greiner-Petter.
