Dear all, Please take notice of this call for support. With the Journal for Artistic Research a major step is taken in strengthening the international infrastructure and culture for artistic research. I hope that you are willing to support this initiative. Please forward the call to your own network. (And don't forget to check the box in the Call, if you are in the position.) kind regards, Henk Borgdorff Journal for Artistic Research (JAR) Call for support: http://www.jar-online.net/call/call.html The international Journal for Artistic Research (JAR) is in the making! After an initial development phase funded by Y (Institute for Transdisciplinarity), Bern University of the Arts, we are now looking for individuals and institutions to get involved and to share our idea of a dedicated journal for artistic research. Already, JAR has widespread support. However, by making this call public do we hope to widen the journal's support basis before we consolidate the journal and start working on issue 0 from the beginning of next year. Now is the time to get involved! We have set up a webpage where you can find additional information and a link to the JAR draft proposal. There is also a form with which you can sign up to our mailing list. Financial support from member institutions is required for the funding of the journal; please indicate if your institution is interested in becoming a supporting member. Deadline for expressions of interest is December 31, 2009. A meeting to discuss quality criteria and peer-reviewing processes and to finalize the organizational structure will be held on March 5/6, 2010; a more detailed invitation will be emailed early January 2010. We explicitly encourage participation from a variety of practices, disciplines and sectors.
