What
Led by Montréal-based group of urban exploration artists, SYN-, workshop participants will explore how infra-qualities – such as undisclosed, lesser known or hidden realities – might inform us of future potentials for campus transformations: how could we then engage the campus as a locus for fostering new kinds of actions, social configurations and interrelations for common spaces which in turn may induce affect?
The research will explore different topics such as: interactions between campus and urban life, an insider and outsider’s perspective; re-shuffled notions of the historically «cultivated» North American campus and its idealized detachment; etc. -
