(im)possible worlds – new (im)possibilities
Eventfrom October 1, 2014 until October 3, 2014Orpheus Research Festival 2014
Expansion and concentration, the incorporation of multidisciplinary tools and the radical focus on certain fields of expertise – these are the poles which will offer a provocative environment to the discourse on (im)possibilities at the 2014 Orpheus Research Festival.
How can impossibilities and concepts touching impossible worlds trigger Artistic Research to generate new knowledge, new practice and new (im)possibilities relevant to artists and to researchers in- and outside our Artistic Research community?
