Filtering as an environing technique is almost omnipresent. Matter as well as data is selected, extracted, and modified by filters – how they do this, however, is often difficult to understand or even remains invisible. Moreover, these processes occur together and cannot be separated from each other. Their entanglement is a specific form of activity. The project investigates filtering processes using historical, experimental and computational approaches. How does new information emerge through massively parallel filtering processes? What kind of environments are created by filtering processes and how do they interact with both historical and current environmental knowledge? And what scaling effects need to be considered when filtering processes become technologically effective at the molecular level as well as at global levels?

Methodology
An extreme variety of filters seems to form the epistemic center of many processes of our transitional age. Which leads inevitably to the question of whether there is a common concept that underlies this multitude of filtering phenomena. Within the project, we understand filtering as a scalable environing technique that differentiates and maintains symbolic and material environments alike. Because of its scalability, human as well as non-human actors can interact with filtering techniques to create environments. Filtering is an activity that matters in a twofold way: It is a material process that is fundamentally important for the actors because it involves symbolic activities at the same time. Starting from this basic concept, we analyze different properties of filtering techniques and engage in a research program that examines cultural, molecular, and digital filtering.

The experimental system Filtering consists of four settings: Molecular Filtering, Digital Filtering, Cultural Filtering, and Design Filtering. What they all have in common is their shared understanding of the cultural technique of filtering, from which our common questions arise. Given this background, each group sets their own agential cut to examine our joint concept in different filtering systems with the goal to expand this concept of filtering, to implement it creatively, and thus to make it productive. Hence, the strategy and program of the experimental system Filtering is: A common concept of filtering results in fundamental insights into the properties of the filter. Based on common questions, these properties are to be empirically investigated in the individual disciplines using concrete filtering systems. The combination of results will test, modify, and extend our common concept of the cultural technique of filtering.
Research Questions
Six common research questions form the basis of our joint research in the experimental system Filtering:
Q1 Order Environments (What?) Analyzing different filter functions reveals a specific order of environments.
Q2 Cultural Techniques (When?) Historizing the coexistence of technologies and environments as cultural techniques.
Q3 Parallel Processing (How?) Understanding parallel processing in filtering (infra-) structures.
Q4 Persistent Irreversibility (How?) Explaining irreversible filtering processes in persistent environments.
Q5 Self-Structured Technologies (What for?) Creating technological matters of activity from self-structuring filtering operations.
Q6 Emergent Activities (What else?) Exploring new interdisciplinary moments of parallel filtering processes.
First, we investigate a typology and order of filtered environments. The analysis of different filters reveals a specific order of possible environments. The second step is to add historical depth to this tableau by examining the coextensiveness of cultural techniques of filtering and their respective environments through time. Questions Q3 and Q4 deal with the parallel-processing capacities and thus the structure-forming properties of the filtering process. But also, with the persistence of environmental filtering mechanisms and the fundamental asymmetry of our world. We want to understand how the filter supervenes over its interacting pores and intra-acts with its environments. The study of filters as cultural techniques of making environments cannot itself occur without an active perspective of environing, and thus extends into current debates on decolonialization. In this respect, the re-entry of the point of observation into the object of research must be understood not least as a creative act (Q5 and Q6).
Molecular Filtering – Digital Filtering – Cultural Filtering – Design Filtering
For the experimental system Filtering, the development of active materials and innovative cultural techniques from self-structuring filter processes plays a central role. For Molecular Filtering, this is a task of rescaling self-structuring topological filters. How can molecular asymmetry be translated into technical materials? Within Digital Filtering, on the other hand, the parallel and self-structuring interaction of humans and computers in shared environments takes center stage in the data processes under investigation. Meanwhile, Cultural Filtering is tasked with identifying and interconnecting other cultural techniques of environment-making beyond filtering. Finally, in Design Filtering, the attention rests on the question of the design power of filtering processes. Filters, we believe, are material-shaping tools; they are design tools whose »activity that matters« creates environments. At the same time, the filter-tools themselves are part of a design process in which their effect is critically questioned, and their respective design is reflected upon. This concerns especially the potential of the filter to segregate and destroy: the unintended consequences of modern filtering technologies, be they algorithmic, physical, cultural, or social. The goal of design filtering is thus to design filtering processes as an intra-action in such a way that they simultaneously allow for a critical reflection on their own agency – they can self-filter.
Exploring Filtering
During the short project Exploring Filtering interaction designer Thomas Ness and textile designer Veronika Aumann created several playful experiments around filtering processes. The goal of this exploration of filtering was to gauge and express them in a practical and tangible way, respectively. They focused on the filter itself – as an object and active matter. In the »Design Lab«, different kinds and methods of filtering processes were tested hands-on with familiar prototyping materials and techniques and transformed into six narratively and visually impressive representations.
Molecular Filtering
Filters environ. Within the Molecular Filtering experimental setup, new environments are explored, emerging from mathematical descriptors of the organised assembly of molecules at interfaces. José D. Cojal González, Carlos-Andres Palma und Jürgen P. Rabe aim to find symmetry-protected channels to transport sound, heat and matter. We aim at topological dynamic matter.
