November 17, 3:30pm-4:30pm | Arts-based Research: Artistic Process and Performance as Research Methodology
Posted in: Work in Progress
Michael Viega, MSU Cali School of Music
Arts-based research is an umbrella term for the use of the arts and aesthetic engagement in research design and dissemination. Its history stems from social science researchers in the 1980s, who viewed it as a natural extension of qualitative research methods. Since that time, critical theorists, social activists, social science researchers, and creative arts therapists and educators have increasingly found new ways to describe the role of art in, and as, research. This workshop will explore the potentials of aesthetic knowledge and creative worldviews within research, and arts-based research’s ability to offer evidence that is unique from objectivist and interpretivist research design. Examples of artist process and performance in arts-based research from the presenter’s work will be shared. Audience members will explore how arts-based research can help support and enhance their work across a variety of disciplines and research designs.
Please contact Tim Gorman or Kate Temoney if you would like to join the workshop session.
