ABSTRACT
There are a variety of ways in which the visual can be used in dissemination. This chapter explores one form by describing the processes authors engaged in when producing an art exhibition, to create an innovative form of dissemination by working with an artist to produce mixed media material that communicated their academic work. The art exhibition aimed to disseminate an aspect of Reverberating Rhythms that examined a particular theory of social organisation called neo-tribalism. Art exhibitions have the potential to (re)introduce vitality into the way psychologists present and experience their research since they can disseminate ideas through a range of forms of knowing. The chapter develops Liz Lee’s paper on the processes of collaboration to provide a framework for others wanting to communicate academic theory and analysis through art exhibitions. The chapter concludes by noting that art has gained ascendancy in popular culture recently.
