FIMS 9609B-001 (Winter 2023)   Making and Methodology

Instructor: N. Hunter-Young

Course Description
In this course, students will explore the reciprocal relationship between form and content, theory and practice, processes of inquiry and changing states of matter via the study of research-creation. Research-creation—also referred to as multi-modal and artistic research—pursues new knowledge using creative forms of inquiry (and often arts-based) processes. Drawing from multi-scalar examples, global and pan-indigenous perspectives on creative ecologies, students will discuss, critique, and decipher creative works and innovative methodologies toward the production of new methods.
