In order to explore material transformations of a seemingly elusive material, we will visit Rotterdam's most prominent reclamation project, Maasvlakte 2. The harbour tour will serve as an introduction to sand as an interscalar vehicle as well as a critical reading of interspecies relationships in design (from object-oriented-feminism to questions of individuation). Observations on the symbolic, economic and physical values of sand made during the tour and exhibition at FutureLand will be collected and discussed. The aim of the workshop is to get an insight into the politics of human-material relationships in Rotterdam and understand how they might limit the becoming of both matter and humans by design choices made.
