Presentation
UC intends to constitute a territory of experimentation and collaboration based on different strategies, which cross design, visual arts, performance, photography or video, so that knowledge is produced and disseminated collectively. Hybrid practices have been gaining prominence in contemporary times, as they bring together some of the most intense experimentations of modernism, as well as certain technical and technological transmutations in the first two decades of the 21st century. In this context, the UC establishes a laboratory space that aims to work with different creative and artistic languages ¿¿in the research of aesthetic and conceptual objects, which promote the interrelationship between disciplines, as well as the interrelationship between expressive techniques. It is a curricular unit that works in a theoretical-practical mode and with a design methodology, promoting partnerships with institutions outside the university.

Objectives
Objectives
- Questioning the mix of borders that characterize much of contemporary creative production, understanding the creation process as a gesture of contamination, influence, collaboration, citation and co-authorship; -Experience creative practices (techniques, processes) that dissolve barriers between the languages ¿¿of the design and art, promoting theoretical and practical relationships with other fields of knowledge; - Establish connections from a spectrum of references and typologies of thought artistic/creative based on practice-based, art-based and concept-based research, reflecting on the creation process as a practice of sharing influences and discourses; - Promote reflection on the ecology of different hybrid practices, through case studies of historical and contemporary projects, as well as exposing students to intermedia case studies, in order to explore interdisciplinary practices and question the concept of authorship.

Teaching methodologies
Teaching methodologies
Use of disruptive strategies, introducing new ways of looking at content. Thus, the pedagogical design follows a line of thought with the aim of creating an articulated relationship between thinking, feeling and doing, rearranging the order of these three elements in new geometries whenever possible. From a specific context (story, challenge, brief, etc.) students are encouraged to develop attitudes and behaviors in project or laboratory mode, aiming to work on skills and curriculum content in a dynamic and interactive way, mobilizing different capacities of the student and their various types of knowledge. Some methodologies involve the introduction of creative challenges (use of objects, images, sounds or people, events or actions), creation of artifacts (production of analogue/other micro-devices, graphic and written diaries, cartographies), use of the body (expression body).

Assessment
Assessment
A avaliação final da UC tem um carácter contínuo que incide na assiduidade, participação, cumprimento de prazos e empenho. O desenvolvimento do(s) projeto(s) proposto(s) para o semestre pode(m) ser individual(ais) e/ou coletivo(s). Realizar-se-ão, também, diferentes exercícios exploratórios que visam estimular a investigação, a criatividade e a inovação. Os momentos de avaliação são definidos pelo docente e têm carácter obrigatório. A avaliação final global resulta das ponderações dos diferentes exercícios, onde se inclui 90% dos trabalhos propostos (numa percentagem equitativa) e 10% da participação e presenças. O exame de recurso será constituído pela realização da totalidade dos projetos exigidos durante o semestre e por uma adaptação a um novo tema, e ainda um possível exercício extra desenvolvido no dia do próprio exame.
A participação nos Workshops é de carácter obrigatório, e conta para a avaliação final da UC
