Reuse Case: Shared Practice

From Reuse
Jump to navigationJump to search

A known academic publishes a book on an Open Access platform, detailing an artistic research methodology they've developed through several years of research. The methodology they describe mostly refines and reworks models for thinking about concepts that are already circulating in performance practice, such as the experimental conditions of a practice and the trouble with documenting and capturing bodies through video. Other practitioners read the book and "run with" these ideas, reusing them as a starting point. While the conceptual and practical ecosystem of the book itself is based on a shared practice, the academic asks that their name be mentioned and properly cited every time the described methodology is used.

This case was shared during a workshop with participants in New Performative Practice, Stockholm University of the Arts (September 2023)
