Procedural starting point

The way I described my methods or process in my last funding application was: We see our work as a #potential_space, a carefully considered #practice that is #activated_by_and_with_others. We immerse our #audience in a #sensory_experience. #Spectators are never passive #witnesses. They are always #participants, #peers, or #temporary_collaborators. We operate outside conventional presentation spaces, working primarily in #public areas with specific #communities.

What I actually did was / what I usually do is: It is pretty much this, in a less fancy way of course :) #accurate

My previous experience between 'academic' and 'artistic' work:

I did a master in art and education where I had to do an empirical research and write a thesis. My research was to see if integrating public performance art into the class of civic education would stimulate high school students empathy to social and political issues. It was a small intervention with a group of students but in a proper academic research settings.
