About the open lecture
Based on examples from Marie Koldkjær Højlund's previous research in public space, hospitals and within the art world, this lecture will discuss what different types of knowledge, methods, output and impact art- and design-based research can (and cannot) contribute to in an effort to address complex societal issues.
Working with sound design, music composition and sound art in various public spaces and across art forms call for an ecological and enactive methodology entailing investigations of actors and their interrelations with their respective environments as attuning and explorative sonic citizens.
All are welcome! Coffee and cake will be served. Please register for this lecture no later than 2 April
