Centre for Experimental Practices (CXP)

The Centre for Experimental Practices (CXP) is an interdisciplinary research centre linking media, performance, contemporary art, and other fields. We investigate the experimental dimensions of practice: the ways in which practices are both structured by and productive of knowledge. CXP will develop new practice research methods incorporating the aesthetic, the embodied, the critical, and the empirical. We aim to generate speculative imaginings and forms of thought for a more just and sustainable world.
