Abstract
The idea of artistic research is increasingly gaining acceptance in the academy, one of its characteristics being that it accepts subjectivity (aka little r research) as opposed to traditional scientific or statistical methods (big R research). Artists investigate, test and question their work, where the personal insights gained are placed in a context aiming to enhance knowledge both for themselves and within their own disciplines. This chapter details a number of interwoven components which present both familiar and unfamiliar thinking about musical practices in order to explore the following questions: How may musical thinking and its artistic outcomes be considered research? And, in what ways may its artefacts best serve to exemplify this?
