A creative and curiosity-driven collective, CREATURE brings together scholars from different disciplines within the humanities interested in rethinking methods of learning, research, and dissemination beyond the written word.
The FUI-group Creative Research and Teaching in Radical Environments (CREATURE) aims to move humanities research and teaching into uncommon settings and spaces. As a creative and curiosity-driven collective, CREATURE brings together scholars from different humanities disciplines interested in rethinking methods of learning, research, and dissemination beyond the written word. We explore questions like: how can our research move into new spatial and cultural contexts, for example from indoor environments to the great outdoors? What new questions do evolve and which new challenges can we address when we develop research in conversation with society? And how can we as scholars transform research and teaching from words to wider actions?
