Collective practices exist in all societies and have a rich but complex heritage in art, politics and the sciences. How does the current ecological and technological climate affect how we live, work, and think collectively? Which collective practices promote change, and a better understanding of social issues?
This program draws on current research, publications and projects that involve collective methods in the arts, sciences and society. In a transdisciplinary seminar, we gather specialists to address current controversies and experimentations in various fields. This repertoire includes attitudes, activities, tools and infrastructures that have been developed by individuals and organizations to reflect critically on the ownership, governance and division of disciplines, and to bring about a more inclusive and sustainable society.
The program serves as an practice-based research-collective, organized around principles of mutual learning. It consists of a gathering of joint practices which include group-readings, seminars and workshops, tutorials, lectures and field trips.
