I am very glad that this was here. I am in Senior High School, and even though my strand is for Science, Engineering, Technology, and Mathematics (STEM), my heart is always for Arts, specially Music. And I am planning to make a research about Music and the Arts (just to be ready for my future plans). Thanks for this!

I need to know more - I'm an artist with years of art making, art as research, writing about art, teaching studio art. To teach at University, I need a doctorate. I'm looking for the way to do that, especially with low residency. Please answer!

Example of research through visual arts, suggest Douglas Harper on photography and use of visual methods in research.

Hello Dr. Kara
Thank you for explaining the arts-based research method very clearly.
I have a question do you think it's possible to research advertising/commercial using this method?
Thank you!

Great series! Thank you, thoroughly enjoyed this. I must say, reading some of the texts, seeing YouTube videos etc, it strikes me that ABR is especially useful for qualitative research in context of social practice/participation? What if an artist wants to use ABR to understand art making within online communities, or specific case studies that are not in contact with the artist? What is it then, (I'm the artist :)), does it mean I will have to come up with some functional, external action? I am trying to understand social media self-portraiture through understanding the psychic drivers without engaging with the audience with questions or interview, as I am not a psychologist or psychoanalyst. I am an artist. I am trying to understand self-portrait making as self-making in the virtual realm; by creating in practice a textile sculpture with an Instagram profile (gg Frankenstein). The thing that strikes me the most from reading and hearing the latter is that is usually not used a means to understand art making, but as means of transforming. And what if I am looking for understanding art-making from ABR? Or would you not use ABR for art's sake, but more for people's sake (although I would argue it is the same...). Many thanks again, I hope I'm not blubbering too much. Maya

"A song about data that someone is analyzing"!? Sounds totally devoid of why I listen to songs.
