bodies of knowledge
BOK is a place where people can learn from each other.
Things one usually does not learn, told by voices that are not always heard, from different parts of society and the world. In BOK we exchange knowledge that feeds a more just and humane society. BOK welcomes life experts rather than professional authorities.
It is a space to listen, to ask, to connect.
You can find the corpus of all embodied knowledge that was shared in BOK here.
As a semi-nomadic classroom, BOK stays in the same spot in the city for a few weeks or months, and then moves on again.
We hope to meet you soon, in your neighborhood or elsewhere, to learn together.
