Acts of Emerging
Design Research
- EVENT INFORMATION
Distabling: Acts of Emerging Design Research showcases current research projects of Higher Degree Research candidates in the RMIT School of Design.
Building on last year’s edition, Distabling revolves around a table and a series of acts. The table shapes and is shaped by our acts, changing configuration in response to multiple forms of interaction and engagement with materials and audiences. At the same time, it holds together an ecology of practices, ranging from a variety of methodological orientations and research positionalities, and including topics as diverse as material decay, national identities, comic industry, politics of movement and more.
Our acts will take a diversity of formats too. While some consist of ongoing exhibitions, which will be open for spontaneous interaction, others include scheduled activities. We will have an event opening with the presence of all participants on Monday 27/05, and on Wednesday 29/05 afternoon we will host open acts, which invite members of the wider design research community for an informal chat about relationships between acts and emerging ecologies of practice. Please find below the scheduled activities that will happen throughout the event.
