Radical RitualAn itinerant survey along the 45°N parallel

Forty five degrees - Radical Ritual
The engaged spatial protocols of the collaborative studio for research and design Forty five degrees.
More just spatial practices are to be found in the diversity and nuances of myriad space-making paradigms that tackle local challenges while providing credible responses to current global issues. In Radical Rituals, we collect spatial protocols following an imaginary line: the 45°N parallel. This line crosses Europe, from the Atlantic Coast to the Black Sea. The practices are named rituals because they strengthen the potential for collective action in order to reach systemic change. They are labeled radical because they are highly transformative and point toward possible futures.

Forty five degrees is a collaborative studio for research and design based in Berlin, committed to the critical making of space. In the studio's practice, space-making is about resources, not only material or financial but the intangible resources of human and non-human knowledge. Forty five degrees's work aims at investigating the built environment through research, design, and artistic experimentation, across multiple scales, analysing its physical, social, and economic entanglements.
