Journal for Artistic Research (JAR)
The five contributions to this new issue come from artistic researchers working in, and between, the fields of art, intervention, writing, music, sound, and performance:
Paulo de Assis (BE), Vappu Jalonen (FI), Kaisu Koski (FI), Daphne Plessner (GB), & Jan Schacher (CH), Cathy van Eck (NL/BE), Kirsten Reese (DE), and Trond Lossius (NO).

Unlike the traditional journal article format, JAR offers its contributors a free-to-use online writing space where text can be woven together with image, audio, and video material. This new approach displays research practice in a manner that respects artists’ modes of presentation and incorporates web-enabled possibilities for collaboration, debate, and discussion.
The result is a journal that promotes experimental approaches to ‘writing’ and provides a unique ‘reading’ experience, while carefully fulfilling the expectations of a peer-reviewed academic journal. We embrace research practices across and between disciplines, from artists worldwide, with or without academic affiliation.
JAR uses the Research Catalogue, an innovative repository for the documentation of artistic re search. To submit an article, contributors are required to register for an account and use the writing space to lay out and expose their research. JAR provides editorial guidance and technical help with these processes. Interested contributors should first contact the journal to discuss the suitability of their material.

JAR is published by the Society for Artistic Research (SAR), an independent, non-profit association. You can support JAR by becoming an individual or institutional member of SAR. More information can be found on the SAR website.
