Art & Future Labs as Powerful Learning Experience (LX)
Experience sharing
Online masterclass, Learning Planet Festival, Learning Planet Institute, 2022.
During this interactive masterclass, RBW presented the educational aspects of her artistic, urban and prospective research laboratories, and showed how this type of exploratory practices, and more generally the 'lab culture', can be learning accelerators.-The revaluation of this aspect of her experiences is part of a broader reflection on the role of training as a key lever for transitions and the making of the future, as well as on the future of learning in and outside the academic sphere.-The masterclass was organized in partnership with the LX Design MeetUp group, which fosters exchanges of best-practices between learning innovators in non-academic and inclusive contexts.

During this 90mn masterclass, Raphaële Bidault-Waddington, artist, researcher and founder of LIID Future Lab, will share a great diversity of artistic and future oriented experiments, showing how they become powerful learning experience (LX). Q&A will be taken for each presented case.

As a relaxed and discovery-oriented Friday afternoon, the discussion with participants will allow to collectively look for additional insights on creative pedagogy, futures literacy and LX innovation.
