The development of the arts and sciences is distinguished by differentiation and specialization. Since about twenty years, however, we can observe a growing focus on “trans-“, “mixed-“, and “cross-“ as countertendencies to any monolithic conceptions of the arts and design.
Art practice and education, and their corresponding theories, pursue different strategies and forms of interactions, decussations, and interdependencies. This major shift confronts us with different questions: Is this observed fundamental paradigm change true and if so how has it emerged? How are these transitions related to the development of new technologies and how do they refer to the changes of the social and cultural present? What effects do they produce and which possibilities and new perspectives do they open up? Or: which deficits do they cause?
