Desert Humanities: Creating Interdisciplinary Collaboration

Institute for Humanities Research

The IHR invites faculty, students and community members to coffee and conversation with the Desert Humanities initiative at ASU.

Ross-Blakley Hall 196 (RBHL196)

Cross-disciplinary ventures hold much promise in creating fresh ways of addressing complex issues; however, such collaborations are not without their difficulties. What are the risks, problems and rewards, and what are some best practices in fostering a successful interdisciplinary project? Cultural theorist Timothy Morton, international art and design team Maja Kuzmanovic and Nik Gaffney of <a href="https://fo.am" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">FoAM</a> and ASU’s Director of the Center for Philosophical Techniques Adam Nocek have a roundtable conversation with the audience on approaches to interdisciplinary collaboration.
