This book invites the reader to think about collaborative research
differently. Using the concepts of 'letting go' (the recognition that
research is always in a state of becoming) and 'poetics' (using an
approach that might interrupt and remake the conventions of research),
it envisions collaborative research as a space where relationships are
forged with the use of arts-based and multimodal ways of seeing,
inquiring and representing ideas. The book's chapters are interwoven
with 'Interludes' which provide alternative forms to think with and
another vantage point from which to regard phenomena, pose a question
and seek insights or openings for further inquiry, rather than answers.
Altogether, the book celebrates collaboration in complex, exploratory,
literary and artistic ways within university and community research.
