Making and Breaking Webjournal (2019)
The research group Cultural and Creative Industries publishes its own online journal makingandbreaking.org that intervenes in societal debates around cultural production.
It is with great pleasure that Caradt can announce the publication of the new issue of Making & Breaking. We were able to attract an amazing group of contributors for this issue “On the Post-Contemporary”: Justin O’Connor, Marina Vishmidt, Geert Lovink, Angela Dimitrakaki, Patricia Reed, Suhail Malik, Dmitry Vilensky, Brian Holmes and Aiwen Yin. While each of their brilliant essays shines on its own for developing original and highly topical arguments and lines of thought, they also collectively form a rich and diverse debate on the notion of the post-contemporary. Thanks to our designers Patricia Reed (website) and Ananya Panda (issue layout) for the exceptional aesthetic quality of the presentation!
We’ll hope you enjoy this new issue of Making & Breaking!

‘Our research group investigates the role artists, designers and cultural producers in general can play in developing the aesthetics and poetics of a desirable future.’
Sebastian Olma is professor Cultural and Creative Industries. He works for the Expertise Centre Art, Design and Technology.
The research group Cultural and Creative Industries investigates the role of artists and designers as creative innovators and drivers of social and economic change. Affiliated researchers analyse the cultural and creative industries from a critical point of view and examine the conditions under which timely forms of aesthetic expression and social connectedness can actually take place within the precarious reality of this field. What economic models are required by artists and designers to create a meaningful practice within the aesthetic, social, and economic intentions of the cultural and creative industries? What skills sets are required for those artists and designers who don’t just want to follow movements, but actually shape novel social and economic models of the future?
