Dr Karsten Kenklies
Dr Karsten Kenklies is Senior Lecturer in Education at University of Strathclyde and co-founder of ExET.
Very much rooted in the tradition of Hermeneutic Pedagogy and informed by discussions around Queer Theory and Inter- & Transculturality, his research is interested in the systematic structures of theories and practices of education and their embedment in the context of the History of Ideas, of Science, Philosophy and Art. The temporal scope hereby reaches from Antiquity to the present - along exoteric, but also esoteric lines of tradition. Being very interested in Japanese culture, a substantial part of the research is devoted to intercultural comparisons of, especially, East Asian and other approaches to education.

His current work centres on conceptual matters relating to becoming a teacher, education policy and the limits of truth, and Scottish education policy developments.
Dr katja Frimberger
Dr Katja Frimberger is Lecturer in Education at the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, Scotland, UK. Curious to understand the relationship between theatre, film and education (in its broad sense of ‘formation’), Katja is particularly interested in the production-oriented elements of theatre/film-making and how these are theorised as education.
Most recently, she has published on German theatre maker/theorist Bertolt Brecht’s actor training and his philosophising theatre of estrangement; Latvian director Asja Lācis' educational philosophy in her proletarian children's theatre; the role of Hans-Georg Gadamer's aesthetic hermeneutics in researching intercultural encounters
Katja regularly collaborates (as actress, producer, educator) on narrative based film projects with filmmaker Simon Bishopp.
