The performance of research explores the interconnectedness of knowledge and ideas. The practice strives to find the space or conversations in which your emerging and glimmering spark may gain energy and vibrancy.
The spark is an ineffability that needs to gently be held and nurtured before words are found to bring about its form and draw it into relationship with other research. But how do you discover connections without words?
Search engines demand keywords or questions, library classification systems require subject identification, human conversations seek a shared language. Knowledge systems are wrought with problems. Discovery tools are riddled with innate human biases, yet we are so easily beguiled by the illusion of algorithmic certainty.
Intentionality is both necessary and limiting. So much is visible and so little is seen. Whilst steeped in the powerful and fragile liminality of poiesis, embrace serendipity before diving into the opacity of the ‘known’.
