DIALOGUE
“Artistic research”, the commonly used but rather vague term for the intersection of art and science, means a meeting between artistic and scientific processes. I find it necessary not to treat these two processes as each other’s opposites. Instead, dialogue is required.
NEW WAYS
We ought to test and motivate new ways into artistic and scientific results, which bring about a discussion of the process, the work and criteria for the meeting place between knowledge objects.
SENSE AND SENSIBILITY
My thesis, Inter Esse, and my documentary film, Norén’s Drama, stand by themselves. They also complement each other and together form a whole. Although the argument is meant to be assimilated without watching the film, it would not have been possible for me to write the dissertation without this practical work, which engages the senses.
AN INTERPLAY
For the result, the discussion about quality is crucial. It motivates an examination of the formation – from film to text and from text to film: one that, not the least of which, is itself about an interplay between the two.
