[Commlist] .able, an open access multiplatform journal to publish image-based research at the intersection of art, design, and sciences

Fri Mar 24 14:58:01 GMT 2023






.able, a free image-based multiplatform journal that publishes research at the intersection of art, design, and sciences, is now available.

.able's web platform and social media propose visually striking and radically new forms of publications where sensitivity is at the foreground.

https://able-journal.org / @ablejournal on social media

From the design of sustainable fashion or bioluminescent micro-architecture, to the dynamics of bacterial contamination or the exploration of deep sleep, .able journal, through five visual essay formats (scroll.able, pan.able, zoom.able, story.able, video.able), provides multiple entry points to research in art, design, and sciences for all. A peer-reviewed journal to investigate contemporary sociopolitical, anthropotechnical, and environmental issues.

To celebrate this launch, a week of activities, from March 23 to 29, is being held to explore .able

How can we go beyond text in communicating practice-based research at the intersections of art, design, and science?

The traditional methodologies and formats of journal articles are not always adapted to research that explores sensorial and singular forms. .able is the result of observing this limitation; its goal is the innovative publication of interdisciplinary, practice-based research through images.

As a peer-reviewed journal, .able experiments with the potentials of academic publishing, going beyond the conventions of traditional text-centric publishing to explore the many alternatives and opportunities that multimedia and multiple platforms offer.
