Throughout the ages, engaging with uncertainty has been instrumental in developing new knowledge in all fields. As we near the end of the decade, uncertainty saturates both the academic sphere and larger public consciousness, as questions about political, environmental, and social futures abound. As certainties break down and the boundaries we once took for granted are called into question, interdisciplinary research is specifically well positioned to engage with these new realities. This conference aims to create space for dialogue between thinkers and creators with diverse and intersecting practices, perspectives and methods in order to learn from one another.
