TY - Type of reference TI - Introduction: on the origins and necessity of research-creation AU - Nicolas Reeves AB - Born in the interstices between science, art and technology, research-creation has gradually created its own territory — a space that has granted interdisciplinarity the right of citizenship. It became an autonomous field at the turn of the 21st century, with the emergence of the first institutions specifically devoted to its development, dissemination and funding. Through successive bifurcations, it progressively distinguished itself from art–science practices, which, though producing high-level works of high calibre, too often reduce the encounter between disciplines to an ancillary or operational relationship, at the expense of genuine integration. In this article, we explore the potential of research-creation as a site for the production of knowledge through intuition, experience and sensibility. We propose, through a poetic and phenomenological re-centring of our relation to the world, to consider it as an alternative to the loss of meaning and mastery of knowledge brought about by the ever-increasing technologization of our living environments.
