Invisible Knowledge

CCA’s ongoing public engagement initiative is now expanding with a new programme of talks and events, for and by communities and individuals, focussed on knowledge.

Invisible Knowledge addresses knowledge production within Glasgow, and is supported by Research at The Glasgow School of Art, University of Glasgow and SCAN, with the purpose of using research to inform a public programme of events. The Invisible Knowledge programme of events is managed by CCA with two groups: the research-led Invisible Knowledge meeting group and Glasgow Refugee Asylum and Migration Network (GRAMNet).

The Invisible Knowledge group is an experiment in peer production methodology for artistic research co-ordinated by Viviana Checchia, CCA’s Public Engagement Curator. Co-convened by Emma Balkind and Tiffany Boyle, the group’s purpose is to use their research, individually and collectively, to inform a public programme of events.

GRAMNet is a network of researchers and practitioners, NGOs and policy makers working with migrants, refugees and asylum seekers in Scotland. GRAMNet and CCA aim to make knowledge that may be invisible, for whatever reason, more visible and to find creative ways of exploring the interplay between different kinds of knowledge.
