"Sharing Knowledge" - the title of this project says it all. Since spring 2014 the Ethnologisches Museum and the Universidad Nacional Experimental Indígena del Tauca (Venezuela) have been working together on the creation of an interactive website. On this site, ethnographical objects from Amazonia can be bundled, shared and expanded upon. In addition to historical ethnographic artifacts located in Berlin, objects created recently in Tauca can also be included in the discussion. Each description and interpretation of these objects is negotiable and modifiable: a common and polyphonic knowledge base is created.

Probebühne 7 will be presenting this project to the public for the first time: it was initiated by Andrea Scholz, with the website created and programmed by Studio NAND. It will be a fundamental part of the Amazon exhibition in the Humboldt-Forum, providing an insight into the living indigenous knowledge of the present.
