Ways of knowing Spring 2025

Join us every Wednesday this Spring for a seminar series exploring how Ways of Knowing is manifesting in the field of artistic research right now.

The Wednesday Research Seminars provide a regular time and space for internal and external researchers to come together to share a variety of practices, perspectives and approaches to artistic research, as well as to identify affinities and differences, to raise common lines of enquiry – and to engage in critical discourse and intersubjective dialogue across an array of themes, subject areas and artistic disciplines.

Ways of Knowing

This semester the series includes four seminars connected to the doctoral course Ways of Knowing in Artistic Research constructed around the themes of The Human, The Researcher, The Listener and The Storyteller, three inter-institutional conversations between SKH researchers and researchers from The Royal Institute of Art, The Royal College of Music, and Konstfack, the launch of BODIES, a new trandsiciplinary research context, three doctoral percentage seminars, and four profile area seminars. Everybody is most welcome!
