FREE SCHOOL OF is a reflective, free-source educational platform celebrating conversation over any other form of knowledge. With the aim to challenge dogmas and explore contradictions, FSO is inconclusive and uncertain. At the heart of this school lies the curiosity about creative processes, boundaries between creative disciplines, and how established hierarchies between emerging and established voices can transform into platforms for learning.
