Empowering Media Literacy Through Photography and Art
In an era dominated by the digital, the constant flow of images, sounds, and information creates a paradoxical sense of vastness and disorientation. For young people, this world offers infinite possibilities, yet little guidance on how to navigate it responsibly. They interact with digital media daily, often sharing photos without fully understanding the historical and technological journey that brought us to this moment.
Illuminating the Present through the Lens of the Past
Moving Camera serves as a sanctuary for media literacy, offering young people a chance to step back and gain control over their relationship with technology. Through engaging, hands-on workshops, participants delve into the origins of photography, constructing cameras and exploring foundational principles without reliance on modern digital brands. This process emphasizes creative thinking and scientific inquiry, highlighting photography as a dynamic bridge between art and science.
The Moving Camera is a non-profit organization founded in 2019 and based in Neukölln.
Bridge the gap between art and science
Through hands-on workshops, participants explore the history and principles of photography, even building their own cameras. By moving beyond simply pressing a button, they gain a deeper appreciation for the creative and technical processes behind image-making. The Moving Camera empowers young people to develop a thoughtful and confident approach to media, helping them navigate the complex digital landscape with purpose and imagination.
