Description

Creating Together: A Field Guide for Artist-Researcher Collaborations

In this workshop Jean McEwan (freelance artist with extensive experience collaborating with academic researchers), Susan Morrison (freelance comedian, broadcaster, and founder of the Cabaret of Dangerous Ideas), and Rhiannon Bull and Jimmy Turner (both artist/researchers working for the Binks Hub at the University of Edinburgh) drew upon their extensive experience as research designers, practitioners and communicators to deliver a workshop aimed at researchers who want to collaborate with artists and creative practitioners.
We explored the research process from initial ideas to knowledge exchange and dissemination, centring the artist’s perspective and focusing on how you can make this process as equitable, ethical, efficient, and enjoyable as possible. We considered concerns such as when collaborations should begin, how they should work, who should do what, and why we should never leave it to a freelancer to have to raise the issue of money.
