RT Journal Article SR Electronic(1) A1 Kill, RebekkaYR 2013 T1 Novel apprehensions and hybrid utterances: Practice, research, language JF Art, Design & Communication in Higher Education, VO 12 IS 1 SP 21 OP 31 DO https://doi.org/10.1386/adch.12.1.21_1 PB Intellect, SN 2040-0896, AB Abstract This article explores current debates on the role of writing in artistic research. This discussion has been in train for several decades, and yet we are still not clear, as an academic community, in regards to a number of issues related to the status of, role and purpose writing in research by practice. In order to explore this I initially look at some of the discussion, and confusion, surrounding the regulations on, and support for, Ph.D.s in practice in universities in the United Kingdom. I will also explore disciplinary notions of research and then the final part of the article digs a little deeper into the effect of language and logobias in the university., UL https://intellectdiscover.com/content/journals/10.1386/adch.12.1.21_1
