[Commlist] CfP: Interdisciplinary Symposium - Research in the Creative and Cultural Industries

Call for Papers: Harnessing our potential: Interdisciplinary Research in 
the Creative and Cultural Industries

The Creative & Cultural Industries Working Group at the University of 
Derby is delighted to invite submissions for their inaugural symposium 
under the themeInterdisciplinary Research & Research Informed Teaching.

The symposium will be onTuesday Sept 20,2022and will be an online event.

The University of Derby’s Creative & Cultural Industries Working Group 
invites academics, artists, practitioners and cultural stakeholders to 
submit proposals for the Creative & Cultural Industries 
Interdisciplinary symposium being heldonline on Sept 20th, 2022. The 
focus of this symposiumwill be on interdisciplinarity and the value and 
importance of this practice to research nationally and internationally.

The symposium aims to explore the value of working collaboratively with 
academics outside one’s discipline to expand creativity and open new 
possibilities. Proposals may involve current, recent or 
proposed research projects that involve two or more academic disciplines 
coming together to address a shared problem.Increasingly complex 
problems are solved by involving thinkers and practitioners approaching 
the issue from different perspectives. Furthermore, academics can often 
introduce new methodologies or skillsets that are unfamiliar or unused 
traditionally in certain fields, unlocking all sorts of potential.

This symposium is particularly interested in, but not limited to, those 
projects that involve the arts, creative industries and/or cultural 
institutions and examples of how the public experience and impact has 
been enhanced through collaborative, interdisciplinary work. The 
committee encourages all academics from PhD students to early career 
researchers/academics to mid-late career academics and practitioners to 
apply to this highly inclusive event. We also encourage existing and 
prospective knowledge Exchange (KE) partners to present areas in which 
they need collaborative support from the University. It is hoped that 
through the sharing of research and associated conversations and 
networking that new ideas, partnerships and research projects will 
emerge and thus act as a catalyst for future research development.

The committee also welcome proposals of pre-arranged panels of three 
papers on a related theme. Please make this clear when submitting your 
proposal and state the other papers with which you are associated.
