Within the framework of the EU4ART_differences<\/em> project, our task was to create an Artistic Research and Innovation Lab. The pilot project is aimed at giving the Lab a definition, which is a task we share in with the other universities involved in the research. Our objective was to create micro-communities and some space \u2013 in both the physical and the intellectual sense \u2013 that would allow students involved in the research at the undergraduate, postgraduate and doctoral levels to have some kind of communication between them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As for the methodology of the workshop, to create this lateral communication which would facilitate potential future collaborations, we decided to use the metaphor of travel. So, in essence, we defined the most diverse disciplines \u2013 from philosophy and social sciences to sustainability theories \u2013 as different areas on a map. We asked participants to try and mark their own path on this map. This opened the communication about the theoretical elements and details participants would use to lay the foundations for, and add to, their own research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this pilot workshop that we organized, we focused on talking about the research itself in the simplest possible terms, without slides, without presentations, in essence relying on one\u2019s own descriptive abilities and powers to captivate the listener\u2019s attention. First they worked in conversational pairs, where one person would share with the other what they were researching and working on. Then these groups were expanded, making them increasingly larger. From working in pairs, groups of four were formed, and so on, until we got to discussing the results of session together as a single group. The feedback also showed that participants were able to talk and even think about their research topic in a different way if instead of giving a lecture on it, they could engage in a private conversation about it. By using the mapping method in these discussions, they could playfully describe where they were in the research process, what areas they were touching on and what resources they were using. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We were also curious to see what results would emerge when two people discussed their research topics together. Perhaps they would find that there were similarities or certain overlaps. Or they would conclude that they were working in completely different areas. There were examples for both scenarios, with some participants discovering that they could exchange knowledge and information to a degree where they would be able to form small research communities and inspire one another to continue the work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We plan to make this event the starting point for the block seminar that will be held in the Spring Semester of 2022\/23. Students from partner institutions of the European University Alliance will also be able to join this seminar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
