This volume of texts and images has evolved from papers given at
the inaugural Making Sense colloquium, which was held at the
University of Cambridge in September 2009. The chapters collected
here reflect the multi-dimensional and interdisciplinary sense made
at this event, which became something of an artistic installation
in itself. The essay 'Making Sense' by Jean-Luc Nancy provided the
grand finale for the colloquium and is also the culmination of the
volume. The collection also includes articles that expound and
critique Nancean theory, as well as those that provide challenging
manifestos or question the divide between artist and artisan. The
volume contrasts works that use texts to make sense of the world
with performance pieces that question the sense of theory and seek
to make sense through craft, plastic art or painting. By
juxtaposing works of pure theory with pieces that incorporate
poetry, prose and performance, the book presents the reader with a
distillation of the creative act.
