Items related to Practice-as-Research: In Performance and Screen
Practice-as-Research: In Performance and Screen presents a thoroughgoing exploration of the major fissures of established knowledge created by a new trans-disciplinary, worldwide project for the twenty-first century. Focussing on the most fleeting and yet pervasive practices of the performance and screen arts, it both documents and analyses the practical-theoretical integration of hands-on creative and scholarly methods of research. Through an innovative combination of manuscript, catalogue and digital multi-media formats, it aims to embody the principles of performance and screen practice-as-research in its structure and design - making book pages and DVD images mutually illuminating. With over fifty practitioner-researcher contributors, Practice-as-Research constitutes the most comprehensive presentation of this sometimes controversial and frequently fresh way of doing things with an imaginative convergence of artistic and scholarly processes.

Review:
'This represents the first comprehensive attempt to lay down disciplinary and epistemological parameters for the field of Practice as Research. As such it is completely new, groundbreaking and important. More importantly, it is exceptionally well-conceived, carefully organized and thought-through.' - Dr Lynette Hunter, University of California, Davis, USA
'...this book promises to be the first major analysis of practice as research. I have no doubt that as such it will be both timely and useful. Practice as research is by now a familiar feature of the landscape of research into performance. Many academics around the world see themselves as engaged in it. But yet hitherto it has remained, I think, somewhat under-theorised, a bit too slippery. We need a full-on analysis in order to take us to the next stage.' - Professor Simon Shepherd, Central School of Speech and Drama, UK
