Disrupt!Research. Dynamic collaboration under the conditions of disruption
Table of contents
Disrupt!Research: The project
Disrupt!Research is an exploratory project that investigates science communication under the conditions of disruption in order to develop and test formats of interdisciplinary collaboration within and beyond the university. We aim to conceptualize and explore disruptivity as an integral part of communication in and about the sciences and humanities. To reach these goals, Disrupt! Research connects three disciplines: Literary and Cultural Studies, Design, as well as Social and Economic Sciences.
The project is based on the assumption that scientific communication (internal, interdisciplinary and public) is a central arena of disruptivity, where conflicting interests, objects and spaces of research and communication could realize their disruptive potential at any time. However, disruption is not only present as a destructive element in the constellations we investigate. Instead, they reveal productive potentials for innovative collaboration.

07.09.2023 | "Future Editor Forum"
Common publication formats for scientific research, across the various disciplines, continue to be in the form of journals and textbooks. The possibilities of digital technologies and formats are hardly represented and utilized. The goal of this forum therefore, is the exchange of experiences between scientists who experience and wish to change the limits of current science communication.
