Birkbeck Creative Practice Lab

Description

Birkbeck has a long history of championing the creative arts, from its vibrant theatrical and operatic productions at the turn of the 20th century to its innovations in digital media, film, writing and performance in the present. Birkbeck’s Creative Practice Lab supports this rich tradition by cultivating teaching, research, knowledge exchange and public engagement in the creative arts and design industries.

Based in the School of Creative Arts, Culture and Communication, the multi-disciplinary Lab is composed of BIMI (Birkbeck Institute for the Moving Image), Birkbeck Centre for Contemporary Theatre, the Derek Jarman Lab, the Peltz Gallery and the Vasari Research Centre for Art and Technology. Academics work across disciplines with artists, the creative industries and policy makers, to ask questions and produce responses to issues affecting the cultural sectors and the wider world.
