Participants: Linn Skoglund (leder) Jeremy Williams, Unn Conradi Andersen, Jarle Fotland, Thor Magnus Tangerås, Linda Eirin Fosse Lien
Background
What the group members have in common is their exploration of the space between traditional R&D and artistic research. Each in their own way, they work with texts and materials in motion, investigating what is lost or altered in the act of putting something into words.
- How can researchers and designers communicate in ways that go beyond the language of academic research?
- How can art reach the viewer differently than through traditional forms of knowledge dissemination?
