ARC Affiliates are faculty with interdisciplinary, arts-affiliated research interests, who often participate in ARC-sponsored programs such as the ARC Fellows program, the Berkeley Arts Seminars, ARC symposia, salons, and charrettes. These activities build community and connection among faculty, and what begins as informal conversations can often grow into concrete, ARC-sponsored projects. Past ARC affiliates have organized themselves into sub-groups around research rubrics such as “Art + Time,” “Art + Neighborhood,” “Art + STEM”, and we hope to work more intensely on research focused on intra-arts (time-based and interdisciplinary art) and also art and social change.
