Re-Create conference focuses on six core thematic questions:
1). Theoretical Currents: How do the Senses, Animals and the Apocalypse inform research-creation practices ?
(2). Sites: How have sites of research and practice evolved in Latin America, Eastern Europe, Japan, Sweden and Indigenous Cultures?
(3). Histories of the Studio Lab: How have Australian, British, Canadian and American artists historically worked in academia, industry and generative art?
(4). New Methods: What can the concept of co-production (STS),musique concrète,intersectionality theory and critical race studies, as well as the debates about the “practice turn” in higher education provide to the historical and critical positioning of practice?
(5). Digital Humanities and Critical Practices: What are the challenges and the future of transdisciplinary collaboration? What can media archeology do for the humanities and contemporary academic culture? How has failure impacted practice-led research?
(6). Curatorial Actions and Practices: How have philosophy, industrial creation, feminism, sound and “imageness” historically entered into curatorial practices?
Program Chair: Dr. Christopher Salter, Co-Director, Hexagram; Associate Professor Design and Computation Arts, Faculty of Fine Arts, Concordia University Co-Program Chair: Gisèle Trudel, Professor, School of Visual and Media Arts, Arts Faculty, University of Québec at Montreal.
