[Commlist] Symposium about Artistic Research at Kristiania University College, March 10

We are now looking for contributions by media- and communication 
scholars to the Artistic Research @ Kristiania symposium, taking place 
on March 10, 2020 at Kristiania University College in Oslo, Norway.

Call for Contributions

2019 saw the successful launch of the AR@K symposium, a one-day 
conference and presentation-forum at Kristiania University College in 
Oslo, Norway. Artistic researchers from Scandinavia and beyond came 
together to present their artistic research projects and to explore how 
the discourses of research on, in and through the arts as well as the 
ambitions of making research more artistic could inform each other. The 
event brought together researchers from across disciplines with 
different approaches, backgrounds and methods.

We are happy to announce the next symposium for the coming year, AR@K20, 
on March 10, 2020, and are inviting researchers from across the fields 
of media- and communication studies with a focus on art, art history, 
mediation of art and artistic processes to participate.

The theme of next year’s symposium is Artistic Climate(s). How does 
artistic research reflect, correspond to and subvert a plethora of 
contemporary political, ethical, cultural and actual environmental 
climates? How can art help us navigate an increasingly complex world? 
And how do we talk and teach about art as well as facilitate a more 
artistic approach across the disciplines?

We are encouraging artistic researchers, academics and artists from 
across the fields of (but not limited to) film, theatre, music, dance, 
literature, linguistics, cultural studies, social sciences, technology 
and computer sciences, media-studies, and the realms of pedagogy to 
submit abstracts about possible contributions. Embedded in this call is 
our ambition to explore and critically assess the broader 
transdisciplinary approaches to knowledge production through artistic 
research in existing institutional structures. Hence the invitation to 
academic practices and disciplines beyond the traditional field of 
artistic practice and research. This ambition will be visible in the 
programming of the symposium.

The abstract must have a title and be limited to 100 words. If accepted, 
the presentation at the symposium should be 20 minutes in length. We 
encourage a variation of formats, such as performances, posters and 
installations (technical equipment and stage facilities are available), 
in addition to the traditional paper-presentations and lecture talks. 
Presentations requested in any Scandinavian language or English.

Please send your abstracts to (kaihanno.schwind /at/ kristiania.no) (symposium 
curator).

The deadline to send abstracts is 31.12.2019.

Please feel free to share this call for contributions in your respective 
communities and to anyone who might be interested.
