SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Designed specifically as a research training tool, this book is structured on the model used by most research programs. A comprehensive introduction lays out the book's framework and individual chapters provide concrete examples of studio-based research in art, film and video, creative writing and dance, each contextualized by a theoretical essay and complete with references. It examines the relationship between practice and theory, demonstrating how practice can operate as a valid alternative mode of enquiry to traditional scholarly research.--Dust jacket
