Inter-Actions Research Unit

Inter-Actions – situated at LUCA School of Arts in C-Mine Genk - bundles a series of research groups which focuses on design and artistic research, evoking inter-actions between people, domains and disciplines, while exploring the possibilities of old and new materials, artefacts, media, spaces and events.

By separating “inter” from “actions”, the unit stresses that its research wants to stimulate people “acting (actions) together (inter)” in cross-disciplinary or participatory set-ups.

Inter-Actions thus focuses on:

1. The human and social aspect of design and art, but at the same time the unit also explores
2. The material and technological potential of objects or media for provoking different interactions.
