xindanwei chitchat edition 22: Collabor8 Project

Time: 17:30-19:30 Friday, September, 17th
Cost:free
Host: Ian McArthur

Globalized economic and urban territories linked by network technologies and reconfigured geopolitical relationships are creating a context where art and design educationalists are impelled to develop innovative pedagogies relevant to the needs of students, the world community, and as yet unforeseen industries.

Ian initiated The Collabor8 Project (C8) in 2003 as a platform challenging design students in Australia and China to collaborate online. C8 has since evolved from a visual communications focus to include multidisciplinary practices. Its goal is establishing ways of teaching that facilitate common understandings between students from east and west as a basis for co-creation.

In 2009 Ian worked with Professor Richard Goodwin to develop the PorosityC8 e-SCAPE Studio which challenged sixty art, design, and architecture students, practitioners and academics from The College of Fine Arts (COFA) and Donghua University (DHU) to interact online in a process culminating in an intensive two-week studio at DHU. In this chit chat session Ian talks about the context of the C8 and will discuss some of the student collaborations from this studio.

Ian has held a range of leadership roles in higher education in Australia and South East Asia including Program Director of Graphic Design, La Salle DHU International Design College, Shanghai, China. He currently coordinates COFA Online’s Undergraduate online program and lectures in the School of Design studies at The College of Fine Art (UNSW). He holds a Master of Design (Middlesex University, UK) and two education degrees (UTS, Sydney). Between 2003 – 2006 Ian was Head of Arts & Media at Kingscliff and Murwillumbar campuses of North Coast Institute of TAFE (NCI). Ian is currently a PhD Candidate in the School of Media Arts at COFA.
