Course summary

The programme is structured in two phases. Phase 1, running from term 1 to term 3, concentrates on design studios and seminar-based lectures on the history and theory of interdisciplinary and interprofessional collaboration as well as network-based design and organisation and the realisation of applied events and installations that result from the group's various collaborations. Phase 2 concentrates on development of the individual thesis - either as a written dissertation during Term 4 (MA) or as applied practice during Terms 4 and 5 (MFA). Drawing on experts from backgrounds as diverse as performance, design, music, film, photography, fashion, communication and curation, the studio gives students an opportunity to step away from their current research or academic activities to develop new creative skills and grow their professional network.
