This book aims to gather and document lived experience and nurture relationships in teaching and learning postgraduate Art and Design courses in the UK. It is chiefly written and edited by Cai Tuomivaara.
The key audiences and contributors have engaged and have long-term interests in the academic practice of this specific subject area. Our work seeks to facilitate the exchange and improvement of higher education in Art and Design in the UK, which historically struggled against epistemological, methodological, ontological, and neo-liberal conventions typically operated at British Universities.
Wikibooks demand a 'neutral point of view'; we don't believe any text and images can be neutral, nor should they be. Instead, we position this book as a fictive instruction manual for achieving the impossible harmony in which art and design are forced to reconcile with Capitalism, Neoliberalism, and now, techno-supremacy.
We position artists and designers as tricksters who walk the boundaries, thrive in plurality, and stay with the troubles.
