a humanities, (social) science and social justice centric lens to facilitate dis-covering ourselves, our work(s) and our world.
from SOUND, SPACE, STRUCTURE, to SOCIETY (amongst others) the course takes on a range of thematic focuses to explore and expand knowledge in various areas of art and science.
by providing expansive and inclusive understandings of art and science as not (only) outputs but as methods of knowledge collection, creation and distribution, the course will raise the following questions for consideration and discussion (amongst others actively developed with students throughout the course):
this class will encourage students to think as much as possible "outside" of the classroom setting and the programme's guest lecture series, workshops and visits will engage with a range of practitioners and creatives (both based in Vienna and internationally) whose practices subvert the status quo in art/science and knowledge.

by providing expansive and inclusive understandings of art and science as not (only) outputs but as methods of knowledge collection, creation and distribution, the course will raise the following questions for consideration and discussion (amongst others actively developed with students throughout the course):
- what is/can be considered “knowledge” in art and/science?
- how do/can ways of learning and knowing impact our (creative) outputs?
- how can we disconnect knowledge from a cerebral association?
and what result could this have on (creative) outputs? - how does “failure”, (un)knowing and mistake making/error “queer”
(Halberstam, 2011) knowledge in/of art and science? - how can we incorporate ethics into an art of knowing and subsequently
art/science practices? (hooks, 2000)
