Experimentation, speculation, and creationare intrinsic to artistic research,research in which complex artistic, social, and cultural issues are often at work and at stake. Thus,exploringaesthetics in relationship to ethics,and unfolding relations betweenauthorship, ownership, citation, participation, and consent,arekey concernswithin the SKH artistic research environment.
Throughexperimental and expandedpractices of cooperation, documentation, publication, and exposition, as well as curating a culture of intra-, inter-, and trans-disciplinarity, SKH endeavors to increase the access to, and circulation of, research produced within artistic and academic fields, with a desire to connect to society more, more often, with morecomplexity andmore precision.
