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.
