samtale i praksis

Kunstforskning i teori, skrift og udsigelse
---

VÆRKSTED FOR ÆSTETIKs "samtale i praksis" er et revideret koncept, under fortsat udarbejdelse. 

Værkstedet udarbejdes af Jonas Georg Christensen, ud fra arbejdet med projektet "samtaler om praksis". 

“Samtaler om praksis" blev udført i efteråret 2022, primært sammen med lyddesigner Eske Nørholm, med økonomisk og faglig støtte fra Art Hub Copenhagen.
