The residual meanings attached to the arts emerge through histories that have maintained disciplinary difference between dance, music, art, drama. This modernist persistence affects intellectual and corporeal innovation in school-based arts so how might a rearticulation of arts practices, as well as research and education procedures from the…

In this text you will be introduced to different examples of art and teaching as inseparable practices. The text enters from an artistic perspective with the agenda of experimenting with a merge and dissipation of the boundaries between art and education, and to incorporate not only the everyday, but also the phantasmagoric, mythical and…

This chapter extends the creative potential of three dimensional (3D) and four dimensional (4D) printing in order to highlight a posthuman focus that promotes the experimental qualities of visual art within arts-based research (ABR). Given that the social and environmental stakes are high due to the proliferation of 3D and 4D digital fabrication…

This book focuses on cellphilming as a participatory visual methodology in arts-based research and teaching. The book aims to advance critical perspectives--and re-visioning--in relation to the co-production of knowledge through cellphilming. Many of the chapters come out of an international virtual symposium hosted by McGill University in June…

Our chapter invites you/them/us to think the notion of possible worlds in line(s) with Gilles Deleuze's writings about dividing worldly signs into different encounters. We are developing artistic encounters, as worldly signs in an attempt to ontologically infiltrate cartographies of child/ren/hood(s) in early childhood locations. And doing that…

Drawing from an international authorship and having global appeal, this book scrutinizes, suggests and aggravates the relationships, boundaries and connections between arts, research and education in various contexts. Building upon existing publications in the field of arts-based educational research, it deliberately connects and disconnects the…

This chapter will refer to recent art practices in order to explore the idea of a subject-yet-to-come in the domains of pedagogy and learning. It will argue for an immanence of pedagogy in art practice where the event of art and its affect, forces thought to think and to individuate new worlds. One aim is to try to think beyond conceptions of…

Challenging traditional formats for dissemination of scholarly work in the arts often means adapting creative works into text-based documents for assessment. Complexity in such discursive spaces of representation frequently results in unsatisfying outcomes. New materialist theories extend ideas beyond visual production and reproduction towards…

In this chapter the notion of assemblage is put to work in order to understand how the early career researcher-musician-educator comes to be formed from the milieu. An analysis of the relationship between research as knowledge production and the artistic desire for aesthetics and affectivity is undertaken to trouble the boundaries that separate…

This work emerged while rehearsing Fauré's POÈME D'UN JOUR for voice and piano comprised of three mélodies. While rehearsing these myself, I was compelled to create three artful narratives of my own: one from my life right after graduation day, one from my life as a music teacher, and one from the lens or voice of a qualitative researcher. I also…

This book describes the practice of poetic inquiry and takes the reader through the process of translating lived experience into poetry that attends to the lives of others. Using her own writing--from early drafts to published poems--Apol demonstrates elements of poetic inquiry that both give it strength and make it complicated: the importance of…

This chapter takes as its metaphorical lens the painterly concept of pentimento, which operates materially, conceptually and aesthetically in and through the 'writing'. The pentimento functions as a means to explore visual modalities of portrayal of the theoretical dispositions as well as of the theoretical dispositions themselves. The…

This chapter aims to rework humanist understandings of data in art|education|research by developing the 'data event' as a methodological concept which is productive for post-qualitative inquiry. Working with data as event involves a posthumanist reconceptualisation of art|education|research practice that does not separate sensorial data from the…

Don MacDougall's death was a rupture in our community of artist scholar educators. After all, how can we imagine our death? Heidegger (1953/2010) argues that death is 'eminent immanence' (pp. 241-251). For Derrida (1993), it is an aporia as it is something un/imaginable as a living being. Attached to Don's research at the time of his death brought…

This book communicates new voices, insights, and possibilities for working with the arts and memory in researching teacher professional learning. The book reveals how, through the arts, teacher-researchers can reimagine and reinvigorate moments of the past as embodied and empowering scholarly experiences. The peer-reviewed chapters were composed…
