Mapping Research

Cass Research Workshop #3

The Cass is a unique environment, in which practitioners of all a range of design disciplines work side-by-side with academics to produce all kinds of knowledge and outputs.

The research environment at The Cass needs capturing, and that's the purpose of this Mapping Research workshop. At this workshop we will define the territory of research and practice at The Cass, seeking crossovers between individuals and groups; including a diagram of everyone's research and practice interests, showing the clustering of topics – in order to situate the existing and emerging research centres. We will use the map we produce, which will be a development of the first iteration produced in 2018, as a way of establishing the rationale for defining new research centres.

This is one of the 2018-19 series of Cass Research Workshops. The series, which covers a range of topics – from practice as research, to academic writing, to book-publishing – aims to support and encourage Cass Staff and Postgraduate Research Students to develop key skills in academic research for artists, designers, writers, architects and other fields of creative practice.
