Art, Science and the Meaning of Research

Tim Ingold is Professor of Social Anthropology at the University of Aberdeen, and a Fellow of both the British Academy and the Royal Society of Edinburgh. Ingold has sought ways of bringing together the anthropologies of technology and art, leading to his current view of the centrality of skilled practice. Influenced by the work of James Gibson on perceptual systems, he has been exploring ways of integrating ecological approaches in anthropology and psychology. In his recent work he links the themes of environmental perception and skilled practice, seeking to forge a new approach to understanding the relation, in human social life and experience, between movement, knowledge and description. Ingold has gone on to write and teach on issues on the interface between anthropology, archaeology, art and architecture, leading to his book, Making, published in 2013. Ingold’s book, The Life of Lines, was published in 2015.
