Hands on research

Whether you consider yourself a beginner or a more advanced practitioner, this guide to getting started with research in art and design is ready to bring you further. It introduces the circular model of doing research visually, augmented by many examples, images, and practical tools. The publication highlights the unique and rich aspects of practice-based research while remaining accessible and applicable to different disciplines. The research process is described through six actions, each equally important as a potential starting point: research by making, research of context, participatory research, reflecting on research, documenting research, and making public.
