about us
taft floats is the home of the Taft–DAAP Visual Cultures Research Group (2023–26). Our aim is to promote and foster visual culture research-creation at UC by creating regular spaces for Taft and DAAP faculty and students to share, present, and workshop-research in progress, as well as experiment with different modes of research–creation together. We host multimodal sprints with guest artists/scholars, create rapid public-facing prototypes, publications, and installations, organize workshops to disseminate and promote visual culture research-creation methods, techniques, and theories, and serve as a resource to facilitate and support multimodal graduate and undergraduate research-creation. We are funded by the Charles Phelps Taft Research Center, a multidisciplinary humanities and social science hub at the University of Cincinnati.
