Taidetutka (Art Radar Journal,) Helsinki: Taiteen Edistämiskeskus.n/ahttp://hdl.handle.net/10034/621933This is the edited broadcasted Podcast of an interview with Allan Owens by Krista Petäjäjärvi (Centre for the Promotion of Artists /Taiteen edistämiskeskus) published in Taidetutka /Art Radar Journal, Helsinki, Finland , 17/10/2018In Williams’ (1961) theory of the long revolutions – democratic, industrial and cultural – in which our societies have been embedded for generations, he argues that the very large scale of the changes and the many generations affected over time make it difficult to have any adequate perspective on the scale, depth and complexity of the changes that we nonetheless experience. (Adams and Owens, 2016). These long term social changes and conflicts are inevitably manifest in short term, contingent and local ways: ways of thinking and practising are continually changing and in so doing mirror or amplify the deeper currents of social change. Applied drama and theatre practice with all its specificities and cultural nuances, its implication of agency and collaboration, is a medium through which these deeper currents can be touched. The forms that such interactions and collaborations take can provide a lens on what change through art might mean.enAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Applied DramaTheatreArtChangeDigital or Visual MediaTaidetutka /Art Radar Journal
