Utopia Lab

The studio is a place where people meet and collaborate and ideas clash and contend; where capacities and techniques are exchanged and enhanced. The studio is much more than a cabinet of tech. As a place of cooperation, the studio endeavours to constrain the institutional logic of competition. As such the studio is a negative space where collaborators are invited to study, investigate, and prefigure passage ways through to some post-neoliberal university.

INTERMEDIA RESEARCH

How do you represent contradictions when they intermediate the politics of belonging or not belonging? How do you describe contradictions when social contradictions are not reducible to logical ones since they involve temporalities and emplacements and dislocations?

The Studio programs reflexive work that challenges dominant forms of reified social science and commodified art; supporting work that is critical, process-driven, participatory or interactive.

Researchers can bring their research to the studio at any of the following key turning points of your research process: Discovery; Investigation; Critical Interpretation; & Knowledge Mobilization

A Reaction! First a quote from Al Hansen, Lettuce Manifesto (1968). Lettuce bring art back to life. Lettuce forget theaters and perform in the world… Lettuce perform in life with no warning… Lettuce shape… Lettuce dig the possiprobabilities… Lettuce accept the limitations and work within them… Lettuce destroy all limitations…
