description

The Commons @Public Libraries was featured on the DESIS research lab website for social innovation and sustainability. 

The Commons @Public Libraries is a communal, modifiable space in libraries that all members of the public can interact with or curate on any topic that interests them. It enables individuals to contribute directly to the content of the library, while providing a physical and virtual platform in which to engage in public discourse.

The Commons aims to tap into each person's interests and expertise to create shared learning experiences, while empowering both the individual and collective voice. It is about taking one person or group’s idea and seeing how we, as a community, can collectively expand upon it.

Dialogical Space

video

description

Dialogical Space captures the aesthetic experience of the cognitive process and ongoing dialogue that occurs within contemporary communication systems and networks. It is a mixed media work that merges painting, classroom overhead transparencies, diagrams from textbooks, and digital prints, within a collaged process that acknowledges rhizomatic and decentralized systems of knowledge. The end result represents a “working through” of the tenuous nature of ways of knowing.
