‘You see my belief about art is that art is open for everyone. I mean, the thing of technique doesn’t come into anything; the thing of chance & randomness & spirit is definitely the most important thing’ - Mark Hollis (Talk Talk) in the wondrous *A Perfect Silence* benwardle

‘We have a thing here where we say, “It’s the process, not the product.” That’s pretty important for me.’ - Peter Gabriel

Fantastic day with the AHRC Everyday Creativity Research Network. Qs around the intersections of the esoteric with the pragmatic; where, how and why we bound the concept of everyday creativities; when does representation become knowledge and knowledge become action?
