Hey! My name is Veerle Spronck (📍Maastricht + Utrecht). I am a researcher at the intersection of arts,
science, and technology. I work as associate professor [associate lector]
‘Valuable Entrepreneurship in and through the Arts’ at the University of
the Arts Utrecht.There I do research on the societal value(s) and impact of arts and design.
Practically, that means I conduct and coordinate transdisciplinary artistic
research projects on societal issues such as digital citizenship, the role of ecology in design, and ‘good’
care.
Building on my interdisciplinary background in art history, science & technology studies, and artistic research, the research methods I employ move along with and listen closely to the theme/field I engage with. Research does not always need to result in writing - sometimes making an exhibition, drawing or developing études simply fit better.
Next to my research, I teach within the HKU BA Design for Change and Innovation for one day a week, where I co-created and coordinate the Minor Creative Research for Change. Furthermore, I am one of the makers of the podcast Kunstmatig about art and technology in which we discuss everything from BioArt to glitch knitting.
