Practice-as-Research: Producing Knowledge Through Participatory Creative Practice

A RIH-funded interdisciplinary research project

This research aims to bring together a group of scholars from Fine Arts, Cultural and Religious Studies, and Architecture at CUHK to develop shared interests at the intersections of practice and research, creating social impact through experiments with creative practice (particularly sound art), technology, and urban space. Believing in the innovation and knowledge produced through collaborative creative practice, this project seeks to build an interdisciplinary platform and international network to share experiences and foster discussion on practice-as-research and practice-led research. The research will revolve around the topic of participatory arts in urban spaces, with particular attention to forms of technology-enabled participation.
