Extreme Making

Description

A curated, week-long exhibition of works related to the European Academy of Design Hub Host event was hosted at the Glasgow School of Art Reid Building.

The conference and exhibition explored the present and future possibilities of doctoral research and education in design through creative practice research, located in making and materials, critical theory and history, and by identifying ways in which new knowledge emerges in studio-based inquiry. The term ‘extreme making’ was used to suggest the breadth of practices in design, from established craft skills and techniques to smart technologies and materials, artificial intelligence, virtual reality, and systems design. As new technologies of making generate new forms of practice, we recognise a related expansion of methods associated with design research and intrinsic to doctoral research. Invited delegates were asked to explore the lively and diverse possibilities of doctoral research and education in design and submissions were welcomed from doctoral students, early career researchers, supervisors, and senior researchers.
