Two very effective means of accessing Generalised Parton Distributions of the nucleon are
Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering (DVCS) and Meson Production (DVMP). Jefferson
Laboratory, USA, previously operational with a 6 GeV electron beam and currently undergoing
an upgrade to 12 GeV, is ideally suited for measuring these processes. This paper
focuses on a selection of recent results from the very active DVCS experimental programme
with the large angle spectrometer CLAS, and introduces the exciting programme planned
for its successor suite of detectors, CLAS12, in the vast, as yet unprobed kinematic region
opening up to experiment
