RELATE is uniquely positioned within the global art and technology and scientific community: our international group explores connections between visual and performing arts and emerging technologies and practices.
RELATE’s primary focus areas are:
- The human body and its many conceptualizations as a locus and subject for artistic creation and improvisation, aesthetic experiences, and critical reflection.
- Performative and participatory artefacts, robotics, sound and music, and curatorial practice.
- Art and technology as an alternative framing of art history and art reception.
- The integration of artistic and academic methods that form a hybrid methodology for university teaching and collaborative research projects.
