Monica Biagioli, Maria Da Gandra and Alistair McClymont: Information design/exhibition collaboration with the British Library
This project explores how to make works from the British Library newspaper collection accessible and relevant for contemporary readers and visitors to the library. Our role is to bring the GMD expertise of information and exhibition design to make the historical newspaper collection engaging to audiences and to reflect on the evolution of ‘reading’ news over time to encourage new and further use of the collection. This puts focus on the sustainability of historical news content.

Tobias Revell and Eva Verhoeven
The Global Design Studio (GDS) an online intensive project that introduces students and staff to transnational and transdisciplinary practices and collaboration situated in pluralistic and global ways of designing together whilst exploring subject-driven opportunities for online learning. The project grew out of INTERACT, an academic and student exchange project between four major institutions in Europe and Australia that explored the futures of design in a global context.

Matt Guy / Evi Kontovia and Ellen Hanceri
Showcasing collaborative practises by LCC Business and Innovation
Evi Kontova and Matt Guy from LCC’s Business and Innovation team will showcase two recent projects that feature collaboration between students, and with external organisations. They’ll discuss how new ways to encourage collaboration have improved the experience of students taking part in the Talent Works studio, and how this helped LCC have even more impact on charity and social enterprise clients. Evi and Matt will present what they’ve learnt from a recent student led project with property developer Lendlease to improve collaboration with different communities in Elephant and Castle. Students who took part in both projects will tell you about their experience. Evi and Matt will be joined by Ellen Hanceri who will show you how the Creative Attributes Framework can be applied to external projects.

Craig Burston and Andrew Slatter Rethinking the Intro to unit
The Introduction to GMD unit was modified under AEM to be a holistic assessment to unite Studio and CTS to make a smarter, more meaningful student experience and assessment that has resulted in a 95% pass rate. The unit was modelled on Introduction To BA (Hons) Film Practice where students collaborate and present their studio and CTS outcomes in a group presentation. Transition to LCC was foregrounded in the design of the unit whereby student’s cultural capital was explored through object-based learning that focuses on how the student ‘sees the world’ in response to Nicholas Mirzoeff’s book ‘How To See The World’. The talk will present the pedagogic approach behind Intro To GMD, its collaborative aspects of and its holistic assessment.

Mark Ingham - Closing Keynote
Rhizomatic Collaborative Assemblages (Swirling the Atmosphere)
This closing becoming-multiple-becoming-keynote will be an active and collaborative learning event. It will be a collaboration rather than just re-representing collaboration through a one to many monologue. It will involve dialogues, trialogues and synchronous multilogues.
This event will be based of the idea of the rhizome as opposed to the root-tree, which are botanical concepts employed by Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari (1980) in their second volume of Capital and Schizophrenia: A Thousand Plateaus. In their philosophical thought, arboreal structures grow and multiply in relation to a central guiding structure. For their image of thought, the rhizome is a free expansive movement, constantly connecting random and infinite points. Root-tree structures can stifle this movement, diminishing its expansiveness and potential. Rhizomatic movement can trouble such seemingly static structures.
In the translators forward to the Fold: Leibniz and the Baroque by Gilles Deleuze they look at the idea of an event by arguing that, ‘In the vision of Alfred North Whitehead, a philosopher inspired by Leibniz. An event can be seen in the duration that produces the site of a pyramid, an avalanche of snow, or the jagged edge of rifts in a block of ice. For Deleuze an event unfolds from the union of our perception and the duration of a fan - of the kind Mallarme describes in his occasional verse - that unites and disperses a word (an event) and an object (an éventail) when it swirls the atmosphere.’

5pm Exhibition opening : Interplay Under Construction
Atrium Gallery -LCC
Interplay Under Construction is an interactive exhibition where visitors are invited to explore and experience how the University of the future might collaborate, innovate, theorise and provide new learning and teaching spaces. Artworks and projects by alumni, staff and students are presented to show innovation in teaching and learning practices. The exhibits pose questions to visitors and playfully invite them to answer. By engaging in an interactive multi-sensory experience, we hope you construct and play with your own ideas of collaboration, teaching and learning.
Refreshments will be provided.
Best wishes and hope to see you at one or all of these expositions.
