Knowledge Futures

Posted by Victoria Tillotson in Events on 23.09.09

Goldsmiths Conference, Friday 16th - Saturday 17th Ocotber.

Knowledge transfer describes how knowledge and ideas move between the knowledge sources to the potential users of that knowledge. Currently, the UK Research Councils encourage knowledge transfer by supporting schemes and activities to transfer good ideas, research results and skills between, for example, universities and other research organisations, business, the third sector, public sector and/or the wider community. Partnership and collaboration are seen as essential to this process and impact on current creative practices across the arts and humanities.   The conference is interested in how institutional frameworks create and participate in the conditions for soft knowledge transfer and supportive environments in which people and their practices, knowledge’s and values can be shared and disseminated.

Date: Friday October 16th (2 - 5.30 and 7-10pm) and Saturday 17th October 2009 (9.30-13.30).
Venue: The Great Hall and Ian Gulland Lecture Theatre, Goldsmiths, New Cross.

With evening live sound event curated by Alex McLean, co founder of Slub and Dorkbot, London supported by Sound and Music (Sonic Arts) and Sound Practice Research centre.
