Springer Nature Switzerland AG Practice As Research In The Arts (And Beyond) : Principles, Processes, Contexts, Achievements

This project addresses the contexts of Practice as Research and how to undertake it.This second iteration updates thinking and practices but sustains a direct and clear approach on how to become a practitioner-researcher.New features include an extension of range “beyond” the arts and a case for intra-disciplinarity in Practice Research as an influence in the formation of the “future university”.A comparison is made between Artistic Research and Practice Research recognizing that research through practices with being-doing-knowing is central to both.Acknowledging the current crisis in legitimation, a broad view is taken of how things might be known by an onto-epistemology for the twenty-first century foregrounding the bodymind but sustaining rationality and community by way of Other/other dialogic exchange.Perspectives from around the world in Part II offset the more Eurocentric emphasis in Part I.
