FLUTE: Hands on Research 2018
28th-31st July 2018
http://artisticresearch.web.ua.pt/index.php/en/flute-hands-on-research-2018/
The University of Aveiro, INET-md (Institute of Ethnomusicology, Centre for Studies in Music and Dance) in joint collaboration with APF-Associação Portuguesa de Flautas will host the FLUTE: Hands on Research 2018, at the University of Aveiro, Aveiro, Portugal, from the 28th to the 31st of July, 2018.
The series of FLUTE: Hands on Research meetings intends to contribute towards the dissemination of Artistic Research, enhancing the acknowledgement of the epistemological differences between scientific research and artistic creation, declarative and procedural knowledge, and scientific validation and aesthetic appreciation.
This approach has been developed through the past three Hands on Research meetings, aiming to bridge the gap between artistic production and academic research and creating opportunities to combine performers’ and researchers’ knowledge, for mutual benefit. The first meeting took place in April 2017 and was dedicated to flute; the second, in November 2017, focused on guitar; and in January 2018, the third meeting concentrated on piano. A selection of the works presented at these meetings, which were considered to best represent Artistic Research, have been recommended for publication in ÍMPAR – Online Journal for Artistic Research http://revistas.ua.pt/index.php/impar.
English is preferable, although submissions in Portuguese and Spanish are also accepted.
