Research Catalogue

Artist, actress and writer Nina Goedegebure conducts artistic research into the polyphony of a disease process at the Master Crossover Creativity @HKU, with two transdisciplinary projects; Fertility and 'Will You Carry Me?!' Starting from the question: How are we carried within a disease process? she investigates the effect of art during a disease process, and/or treatment. She is driven by the idea that in destruction lies creation. 'Through Research Catalogue I want to provide an open insight into this artistic process including my sources of inspiration, questions and finds.'

Here you can browse the archive of research expositions. This includes: - Research projects of all master students. - Publications by the lectorates. - Research by staff members.

Psychoanalysis was meant to be a revolution in the centuries after B. de Spinoza’s work. What is interesting in his view for the psychoanalytic theory is how the human experience of the unusual feeling and joy could be approached. The irruption of these feelings is closely connected to symptomatics in psychoanalysis. Symptomatics of the unusual in language and discursive representation in the analytic experience of, say, Sigmund Freud’s couch was a mode of materialization of the feeling. Imagined from the outside world, the characteristic of repression is always an effect of finding an expression.

Les forces religieuses, politiques, culturelles et économiques influencent le monde moderne. Il s’agit de conflits et d’antagonies bien réels, idéologiquement chargés, qui déchirent le monde dans un contexte de formes virulentes de polarisation idéologique, de nationalisme de droite et de fondamentalisme religieux.

As part of the 'Borderline Physical' PHD Project and the "Spirits in Complexity" PEEK Project, this iteration investigates the auditory landscape of a specific fridge in a specific café in Vienna, Austria. The fridge is captured into a physically informed model, recreating its surprisingly complex sound emissions. This model is presented as an installation on-site, next to the fridge whose current working status is unknown (it was broken recently). At the SAR the model is treated as a musical instrument and freely used in complete disregard of physical constraints, leading up to a musical performance that explores a different form of artistic exploration of our sonic environment.
