The National Institute for Experimental Arts (NIEA) at\u00a0 COFA, UNSW is pleased to announce a partnership with Studies in Material Thinking (SMT)<\/em> for a special issue of SMT<\/em> linked to the Experimental Arts conference.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The issue will focus on the nature of experimentation in the arts, pursuing Bruno Latour\u2019s notion that \u201cwe have entered the experimental age\u2026Experiments are no longer conducted just in the laboratory. They have become collective experiments that concern each and every one of us.\u201d<\/p>\n

Papers will be invited from speakers of the conference – practitioners, thinkers and research groups whose work exemplifies creative and transdisciplinary experimentation. These may include art\/design projects that have developed creative approaches to practical problems in areas such as health, sustainability, ecology, or media and informatics, as well as speculative initiatives that radically change the way we think.<\/p>\n

SMT 5 welcomes contributions from all experimental areas of artistic or design practice where materiality plays a key role.\u00a0SMT 5 is open to innovative format options. We would like to have the opportunity to work with submissions using images in a positive, active, discursive manner and to assist artists and researchers to explore a strongly visual form of argumentation.<\/p>\n
