Communities of Tacit Knowledge: Architecture and its Ways of Knowing

Descripción del proyecto

Formación sobre el conocimiento tácito en arquitectura

El conocimiento tácito es difícil de articular, pues se aprende por experiencia y trabajo y se expresa mediante acciones basadas en capacidades. En arquitectura se plasma en los vectores materiales con los que diseñan los arquitectos, a saber, tratados, dibujos, modelos, edificios, etc. El proyecto financiado con fondos europeos TACK combinará por primera vez los conocimientos sobre conocimiento tácito desarrollados en diez centros de investigación distintos de Europa. Servirá para formar a investigadores jóvenes en materia de desarrollo de marcos teóricos avanzados y métodos especializados. El proyecto dará lugar a diez doctorados, tres módulos de formación en línea, un coloquio internacional, una exposición, una serie de ponencias y debates, un lector sintético, un libro y un sitio web.

Objetivo

The 'Communities of Tacit Knowledge' (TACK) ITN will focus on the concept of ‘tacit knowledge’ in architecture. Tacit knowledge is a specific type of knowledge that architects employ when designing, which is also embodied in the material vectors that they design with; from treatises and drawings to models and buildings. This ITN will train young researchers in the development of advanced theoretical frameworks and specialized methods for the analysis of the specific knowledge used by architects while designing buildings and cities. It focuses on the characteristics, the dissemination and the heuristic potential of this knowledge that is particular to architectural design practice. Structured around three training axes: (1) Approaching Tacit Knowledge: Identifying Methods and Histories, (2) Probing Tacit Knowledge: Concrete Cases and Approaches and (3) Situating Tacit Knowledge: Concepts and Theories, the TACK ITN for the first time combines the expertise on tacit knowledge that has been developed at ten different research centres in Europe. Together with three cultural and three practice-based partners, these ten research centres will train a group of scholars to explore and conceptualize the very character of tacit knowledge to better understand its possible roles in addressing new and pressing issues in the built environment from alternative vantage points. This powerful combination of expertise from industry and academia, will introduce these ESRs to new heuristic methods and add to their inter-sectoral employability. Implementation of the TACK ITN will result in ten PhDs, three online training modules, an international colloquium, a major exhibition, a lecture- and debate series, a synthetic reader, a book, and a website providing public access to research results and events.
