So what does Creative & Reflective Collaboration actually mean, and why should you be interested?
Well, I believe that working collaboratively can yield much more than the sum of the parts. So my work is about discovering the best ways to do this, particularly in contexts where musicians or artists are working with people from other disciplines. I have learned that enabling both creativity (through active making and doing in the arts) and reflection (considering important questions about why and how we do what we do, and what makes our work successful) is key to liberating the full potential of collaboration.
