Abstract This article presents a series of experimental music theatre performances that took place between 2015 and 2017. This art-based research investigates how qualities of the posthuman condition could manifest in experimental music theatre, by applying cybernetic and system theory principles at different levels (i.e. compositionally, aesthetically, dramaturgically) in the creative process. The aim of this article is to present these creative processes and to introduce this type of performance practice, namely cybernetic performance ecosystem.

In this article, the researcher studies how it is possible to develop a reminiscence theatre production in an age-exchange project, created with life stories from pensioners, and how the audience experiences the performance. The article is based on six focus group interviews with nine pensioners, a theatre production and a “reminiscence café” between the audience and the actors, arranged after the performance. The researcher designed the study, “The aged as a resource”, based on guidelines for performance ethnography, art-based research, practice-led research and artistic research, in order to combine science and art, which could be said to represent two different epistemological traditions.

<strong>Abstract</strong><br />The Decorative Letters Application in Kinetic Typography. Typography is a design element that is very important and widely used in animation, which is known as kinetic typography, where the letters move and become the main visual element in conveying information. Decorative letters are now more diverse, some are easy to read, but many of them are difficult to read. The developing of decorative lettes will certainly affect the visual. The purpose of this study is to see the development of decorative letters<br />application in kinetic typography. This art-based research uses qualitative research method by analyze the decorative letters as design elements based on basic typographic theory. The result is a conclusion of the achievement of delivering information through the decorative letters, especially in kinetic typography and open to further study.<br />Hope that this research can enrich designer’s references in applying typography as an important and informative design element.<br /><div> </div><div> </div><strong>Abstrak</strong><br />Penggunaan Huruf Dekoratif dalam Tipografi Kinetis.

Abstract Many researchers show that the medium of the theatre can be an effective tool for collecting and analysing data and designing learning processes, especially when it comes to issues relevant to communities. Art-based research methods offer different ways of thinking, perceiving and researching social problems. The analysed theatrical play, ‘Tolerated Stay’, addresses the issues of hospitality in the context of refugees. The starting point is the history of a Chechen family with whom the artists worked and who stayed in Poland under a tolerated-stay permit. The play was realized in a private apartment. The convention of a meeting at a table opens the field for debate on the themes of the emigration and hospitality. In the analysis, three perspectives of hospitality were distinguished (of refugees, artists and participants). Following the principle of triangulation, different methods from theatre activity were supplemented by qualitative methods.

Living With Hiv

Art-based research methods can enable young people to generate data that provide insights into their lives. We assessed the feasibility, value, and limitations of collages as a participatory research method to understand the experiences of young women living with HIV. Individual collages were created in participatory workshops, firstly in 2015 and secondly in 2017, by a cohort of young women living with HIV in Lusaka, Zambia. Collages were analyzed visually and thematically and compared to other qualitative methods. Participants engaged readily with making collages and expressed how the collages represented themselves. The collages conveyed aspirations, resilience, optimism, and identities beyond HIV. Other data generation methods focused more on challenges associated with HIV. The second collages demonstrated more complex portrayals of participants’ life and developmental transitions. Collages provided a feasible, effective, and therapeutic method of empowering young women living with HIV to tell their own stories and express their full selves.

Decolonizing Research

This article discusses how art-based research can function as a decolonizing research method. Its analysis is based on the collaboration of social work and art education disciplines for advancing social justice and deconstructing power dominances. Empirically, the research builds on a participatory theatre project, “My Stage,” with immigrant women. The project was established as part of a larger interdisciplinary project, “Art Gear,” in Northern Finland, which promoted the bidirectional integration of the local population and people with immigrant backgrounds. The research data were collected through participatory observation and reflective discussions by the social work researcher in the theatre workshops. By the analysis of an interdisciplinary team of social work and art education researchers, we develop a context-sensitive framework of art-based research to advance decolonizing research methods, which contribute to supporting the agency and inclusion of marginalized populations in research and in their integration processes at times of complex and rapid demographic and societal changes.
