Participants have to read the recommended texts in advance. At the discussion there is no hierarchy, and it is an open-format discussion where we encourage all voices to be heard. The Group operates on a democratic basis which is inclusive of all regardless of status. It is extremely interesting to hear views coming from diverse disciplinary and cultural angles. The challenge is always to make a connection between the text under discussion and our practice in an immediate and practical way. The Group takes a critical approach to our practice.
However, the Group is very friendly, welcoming and informal. We have tea and coffee, and you can also bring your lunch if you like.
