Touch Paper: Collaborative research seminar
Touch Paper is an experimental format for work sharing and group feedback. Strict time and format constraints spark initial reactions from the audience, feeding a unique energy to the research process.
With short presentations of work in progress from Helen Pritchard , David G. Johns & David Strang, the seminar provides a space for dialogue on projects that follow themes of practice-led research.
The seminar itself is an experiment in practice-led research, looking at notions of control, turn-taking, collective action and adaptive systems.
Date: Saturday 12th December
Location: Bizbar (meeting room)
Time: 15.00-16.30

Opening Ceremony: 11.30am (half an hour)

The Ceremonies will be the only organised part of this game. The rest is up to you.
DISCLAIMER: I would advocate restraint in the act of Socking, as befitting the context of the location. If you damage or destroy any property, hurt or kill someone, get hurt yourself or die as a result of this game, you only have yourself to blame.
