Alicia Vela and Antonia Vila attend the "Mind the Gap" Symposium at the Society for Artistic Research (SAR) general meeting. Event organized by the University of Music and Performing Arts MUMUTH in Graz (Austria).

Attending a symposium format from an art concept of sound art projects by six artists from Austria, Germany, Sweden, Colombia and Switzerland, we find this a smart and innovative idea that marks a way in make and make sense of artistic research. A special event whose idea and concept was developed by Florian Dombois and Gerhard Eckel.

On the other hand, we attended the SAR general assembly where the candidates were put to the vote of the new executive. Since last year the Advanced Studies Doctorate in Artistic Productions has been a member of SAR. This association, in turn, runs a Research Catalog (RC) on_line platform focused on the international dissemination of art as research. This network seems important to us so that researchers linked to the doctorate and the research project can make visible and publicize internationally the research that they develop from artistic practice. We think that from art projects we can bring new proposals and formats that give meaning to the activity we generate.
