Abstract
#3CityLink is a translocal collaborative project linking researchers, artists and students in three cities: Regina, Canada; Coventry, UK; and Gyumri, Armenia. It was devised by Rachelle Viader Knowles as a constituent project of Meet In the Middles: Stations of Migration and Memory in Art and Film: http://www.mitmproject.info. The project presented a platform for translocal (local to local) creative interactions using online screen-based media and on the ground dialogues. The project utilised a practice-as-research methodology, to further research in the area of education-as-art which blurs the distinction between ‘art’ and ‘education’, the so-called educational turn in art.
