April 20, 2016

Date: Wednesday, April 20, Time: 15-18 h
Location: Room 5A-23, Wassenaarseweg 52, Leiden, Faculteit der Sociale Wetenschappen.
During last meeting we mentioned reading some contemporary article(s) with reference to Adorno and for that I have a light post-interval session in mind with the following texts:

http://www.focaalblog.com/2015/04/13/ruard-absaroka-alienation-and-ethnomusicology-revisited/
You can also download all three of them from:

Before the interval I would like to get into a subject that has been intriguing for some time now, but that we never really paid attention to, artistic research. Recently a book appeared that you can download from here:

We shall read the introduction, chapter 1 (Cook) and if possible chapter 12 (Toop). Prof. Henk Borgdorff, specialist on artistic research, will be our special guest!
Hoping to see you all then and there!
