Taking our cue from a chapter from our book Aesthetic Programming, we propose a workshop in two parts: first introducing (hand drawn) diagrammming and then (scripted) flowcharts. The idea is to open up different techniques for developing research ideas and structures. The workshop will be run by Geoff Cox and Winnie Soon across two days.

EXPLORATORY DIAGRAMMING
A TALK and Q&A WITH DEAN KENNING
Friday, 25 June 2021
20:00 - 21:00+ UTC
I propose the term ‘exploratory diagrams’ to describe an approach to diagramming which goes beyond familiar statistical and explanatory diagrams so as to focus instead on how the phenomenal act of constructing a diagram is productive of knowledge rather than being merely a representation of already existing knowledge or ‘information’. Diagramming in this sense has particular relevance for configuring social forces and relations of a more complex, abstract and non-evident nature, and for envisioning new models of being beyond current conceptual and ideological frames. It can also constitute methods of close textual reading and critical reflection relevant to art education. I will discuss these ideas in relation to theories of the diagram (Peirce, Châtelet and Deleuze) and to my own diagrammatic works and methods such as Metallurgy of the Subject, Diagramming Politics, Social Body Mind Mapping, Plato’s Caves and Illustrating Capital.
