Academic Feelings

Exploring the emotions of artists, curators, and academics working within Practice-based Art Studies, Academic Feelings challenges the notion that emotions in professional life should be kept private. By staying with what feels at stake, the show opens new ways of understanding knowledge itself, positioning sensitivity as a necessary counterforce in a time shaped by competition, precarity, acceleration, and performance. Created as a podcast artwork for the Centre for Practice-based Art Studies (PASS) at the University of Copenhagen and hosted by artist Rosa Marie Frang, the show features raw, unedited conversations, distinctive use of music, and reflections on the emotions involved in making the podcast itself. Academic Feelings would love to hear from you! If you have any thoughts, feelings, critique or suggestions - big or small – give our answering machine a call. You can be anonymous, and by leaving a message you give permission that it, or parts of it, may be played in upcoming episodes. Call the answering machine: 0045-3532-0247  Credits: host, concept, research, sound technique, recording, editing, writing, graphics, and music by Rosa Marie Frang.

    Writing with Emotions & the Inconvenience of Other People | Ida Bencke | Part One

    In this episode of Academic Feelings, host Rosa Marie Frang sits down with art curator and PhD fellow Ida Bencke for a conversation about writing with emotions. Recorded in a living room rather than a studio, the conversation explores Practice-based Art Research, collaboration, discomfort, and what the many and often unseen feelings behind academic and curatorial work can teach us.

    The Beginning

    Unfolding as an audio essay, host and artist Rosa Marie Frang maps her attempt at navigating between anxiety, vulnerability, and institutional structures while creating a podcast artwork about Practice-based Art Studies. Using lived experience as a method, she reflects on the politics of feelings, the courage to speak when it feels uncool to do so, and the power of feeling comfortable. The episode asks what kind of knowledge lived feelings produce, and if and how they have a place within academic and art institutions. Academic Feelings would love to hear from you!
