The meeting is open to everyone who has an interest in participating in a series of regular meetings in Coimbra to actively share works-in-progress and to have discussions (and creative working sessions) to solve problems of using creative/arts formats for publications, disciplines, academic communities with norms that do not include art or creative ways.
Agenda:
-  introductions of all attendees
-  sharing of interests, needs for sharing
