Disability and Community: Dis/engagement, dis/enfranchisement, dis/parity and dissent - aka The D4D project

残疾与社区：残疾/参与、剥夺/赋权、脱离/平等和异议(又称D4D项目)将调查残疾人表达、执行、体验和实践“社区”的不断演变的方式。这部作品将受到严重残疾理论的启发，并将突出残疾人的知识和生活经验。该项目团队汇集了来自一系列学科的学者、在表演和艺术实践方面具有专业知识的社区调查人员，以及社区合作伙伴(包括Shape、Acentuate和Druk)。我们的目标是向参与社区学习，建立理解，为联系、团结、韧性和激进主义创造机会，并为参与社区和合作伙伴创造有意义的遗产。D4D将探索残疾社区的历史、临床、制度、政治和技术建设的各个方面，并追溯社区成员如何随着时间的推移对这些不同的可能性提出异议、拒绝和接受这些可能性。该项目将促进参与者之间的机构和赋权，促进知识交流和专业发展，并为对话和干预创造新的空间。D4D的研究问题是：残疾人以什么方式与周围社区连接/断开连接，以及他们可能如何困扰现有的从属关系，重新定位自己，并重塑他们周围的社区？该小组将利用残疾研究和社区研究文献探讨这一问题，并进行持续的合作和思考(例如，关于权力、道德和研究实践的问题)。将有8个工作流程：WS1-将探讨融合和边缘化问题，重点放在两个背景下：主流学校和工作场所。它将探索“包容”的生活体验。这项工作将结合人种学研究和一系列文化动画讲习班，通过这些讲习班，残疾人参与者将阐述和探讨包容和边缘化的各个方面。WS2-将通过专注于游戏来探索技术可能影响或促进社会归属感体验的方式。STEAM将支持方法开发，因为它将涉及探索新技术如何支持非传统研究参与者的代理参与。WS3-将探讨残疾艺术社区的起源、发展和未来。特别是，这将涉及到探索“身份艺术”运动中关于从属关系和社区问题的紧张关系。WS4-这篇文章将探讨参与者如何形成、体验和表达另类社区，以及他们如何管理他们(被主流社会)取代和取消资格。这项研究还将支持残疾人社区对临床实践做出关键反应。WS5-在这条线索中，基于艺术的研究将推动对过去、现在和未来残疾人社区的调查。特别是，通过创作和展览互动艺术作品《进化》，主流观众将被要求从残疾角度考虑优生学和基因筛查等问题。WS6-玩耍的身体、技术和社区将讨论技术、社会变化和身体，并确定对残疾和社区的影响，同时利用玩家研究、社交媒体研究、协作游戏设计和公共游戏。WS7-道德、反思和参与学习将为所有上述活动提供信息，并支持所有参与者的实践和专业发展。WS8-将为所有领域的技能共享和知识交流提供一个论坛，并努力最大限度地提高学术界和学术界的影响力。

Disability and Community: Dis/engagement, Dis/enfranchisement, Dis/parity and Dissent (aka the D4D project) will investigate the evolving ways in which disabled people express, perform, experience and practise 'community'. The work will be informed by critical disability theory, and it will foreground the knowledge and lived experiences of disabled people. The project team brings together academics from a range of disciplines, community investigators with expertise in performance and arts practice, and community partners (including Shape, Accentuate and DRUK). Our goals are to learn from participating communities, to build understanding, to generate opportunities for connections, solidarity, resilience and activism, and to create meaningful legacies for the communities and partners involved.D4D will explore aspects of the historical, clinical, institutional, political and technological construction of disabled communities, and trace the ways in which community members have contested, rejected and embraced these varied possibilities over time. The project will facilitate agency and empowerment among participants, facilitate knowledge exchange and professional development, and create new spaces for dialogue and intervention. D4D's research question is: In what ways are disabled people connected/disconnected to/from surrounding communities, and how might they trouble existing affiliations, re-situate themselves, and re-shape communities around them? The team will explore this question while drawing on disability studies and community research literature, and engaging in continual collaboration and reflection (on issues of power, ethics and research practice, for example). There will be 8 work streams: WS1 - will explore issues of integration and marginalization, focusing on two settings: mainstream schools and the work-place. It will explore lived experience of 'inclusion'. This work will combine ethnographic studies, with a series of cultural animation workshops through which disabled participants will articulate and explore aspects of inclusion and marginalization. WS2 - will explore the ways in which technology might impact on or facilitate experiences of social belonging, by focusing on play. The steam will support methodological development, as it will involve exploring the ways in which new technologies can support the agentic participation of non-traditional research participants. WS3 - will examine the origins, development and future of the Disability Arts community. In particular, this will involve exploring the tensions within 'identity arts' movements regarding issues of affiliation and community. WS4 - this strand will explore how participants form, experience and express alternative community, as well as how they manage their (dis)placement and disqualification by mainstream society. This research will also support disabled communities critically responds to clinical practice. WS5- In this strand, arts based research will drive an investigation of past, present and future disabled communities. In particular, through the creation and exhibition of an interactive art-piece, 'Evolution', mainstream audiences will be asked to consider disability perspectives on such matters as eugenics and genetic screening. WS6 - Playful Bodies, Technology and Community will address technologies, social change and the body, and identify the implications for disability and community, while drawing on player studies, social media research, collaborative game design, and public play. WS7 - Ethics, reflection and learning for participation will inform all the above activities and support the practices and professional development of all those taking part. WS8 - Will provide a forum for skill sharing and knowledge exchange across all streams, and work to maximize impact across and beyond the academic.
