Abstract

This research and communication plan aims to investigate, narrate, discuss and disseminate the knowledge produced in the Center for the Development of Creativity (Nudecri) of the State University of Campinas (Unicamp) through its two laboratories: Laboratory of Urban Studies (Labeurb) and Laboratory of Advanced Studies in Journalism (Labjor). Together, these experimentation spaces cover the following research fields: Scientific Culture; Literature, Arts and Communication; Information, Communication, Technology and Society; Public Perception of Science and Technology; Historical-discursive analysis of language in the city; Language and multimedia technology; Studies of Language, writing and city; Urban Lexicon Studies; and City and Security Technologies. In view of these themes and the intersections between them, I propose the production of journalistic reports, in text and podcasts, that address scientific projects and research developed at Nudecri, with a careful look at the different dimensions, stories and subjectivities of the knowledge construction. The produced materials will be disseminated through the web radio program and podcast Oxigênio and the web magazine ComCiência, journalistic vehicles of Labjor. (AU)
