ARTCOM, a transfer method with KIT

A BMBF research project commissioned by KIT: an agile transfer method drawing on art and science.

Background

Knowledge transfer between research and society needs methods that go beyond conventional formats. ARTCOM treats art as a driver for transforming infrastructures and social processes.

Brief and approach

In the ARTCOM research project, ato and KIT are jointly developing an agile transfer method that connects scientific and artistic expertise. Artists and researchers work directly alongside urban planners and technologists.

Outcome

A transferable method, documented and publicly available at artcom.hub-bau.kit.edu. It has already been applied to the Kulturgrube at Karlsruhe University of Applied Sciences, among other settings.
