About the special issue:

Slowly but surely, arts-based research is making its entry into 
Communication and Media Studies, moving away from a rather exclusive 
focus on written texts and oral presentations. This special issue is 
driven by the belief that still more could be done at the level of 
theorizing arts-based research practices, and at the level of deploying 
them in different contexts. The aim of this special issue is to further 
stimulate the discussion on this topic, bringing together a diversity of 
voices, formats and approaches. In order to translate this objective 
into practice, a very strict (and restrictive) definition of arts-based 
research was avoided. Instead, all contributions that allowed for an 
artistic-academic dialogue on arts, academia and research were welcomed. 
This became translated into an intentionally-kept-vague structure, with 
more general reflective texts first, and then a series of more 
case-study-based approaches and more targeted and specific discussions, 
divided into a cluster on participation and interaction on the one hand, 
and mediation on the other. For the very same purpose, also a variety of 
formats was welcomed, including multimodal formats, more artistic 
contributions and policy-oriented statements, even though all 
contributors were asked for relatively short contributions, to maximize 
the diversity of voices. This strategy produced a variety of 
contributions that aim to inspire researchers in the field of 
Communication and Media Studies, and beyond, to reflect about the 
potentialities (and limitations) of arts-based research, and to consider 
adapting some of these approaches and methods in their own academic 
practice.
