Presentation given as part of Capturing Creativity Week 2024. Event 3: Panel session, Friday 13th September, 2024.

Presentation by Jenny Evans, Claire Knowles, Scott McLaughlin and Adam Vials-Moore of the AHRC PR Voices and SPARKLE projects.

Speaker Biographies: Jenny Evans, Research Environment and Scholarly Communications Lead at University of Westminster. Jenny’s current role includes responsibility for scholarly communications infrastructure (people, skills and platforms) within the Library and Archives Service at the University of Westminster. She was the PI on the AHRC funded PR Voices scoping project, based on previous work she led at Westminster to develop an institutional repository for all research outputs, and which embedded practice research from the beginning. Her interests include advocating for ‘FAIR’ (open where possible) research and open standards that encompass all disciplines. Until July 2024 she was based in the Research & Knowledge Exchange Office and also responsible for the University’s research environment. 

Claire Knowles, Associate Director Research and Digital Futures at the University of Leeds. Claire was a CoI on the SPARKLE project and is also a member of the University of Leeds Research Culture Group and co-chair of the University's Open Research Group, she has been actively involved in developing the aims of Research Culture at Leeds to address inequities. 

Scott McLaughlin, lectures in composition and music technology at the University of Leeds, and co-directs CePRA (Centre for Practice Research in the Arts), as well as convening the Royal Musical Association Practice Research Study Group. His research focuses on composing for contingency and indeterminacy in the physical materiality of sound. Scott was Co-I on the AHRC SPARKLE project (Sustaining Practice Assets for Research, Knowledge, Learning and Engagement - 2022), and recently completed an AHRC Leadership Fellowship, the ‘Garden of Forking Paths’ project, on composing for contingency in clarinets —forkingpaths.leeds.ac.uk 

Adam Vials-Moore is Product Specialist: Persistent Identifers at Jisc and was a CoI on the PR Voices project. He is an advocate of the need for the outputs of research to be openly available and easy to discover and access, with experience across a wide array of enabling technologies and infrastructures, including metacognitive and adaptive learning, hypertext, bioinformatics and RIM/repository architecture. His current interests focus on ensuring the global connectivity enabled by PIDs, infrastructure and metadata allow for equitable discovery and access for all scholarly work and developing information structures. With a focus on enabling practice research, and other non text outputs, to be included in that global academy, no longer represented as OTHER. 

Presentation Synopsis: This session will talk about how we are using the practice research lens to work in co-design with researchers to recognise creative practice research outputs and contributors (and addressing some of the issues raised by Hidden REF). It will involve participation from audience members to gather feedback to sense check our findings thus far. This will enable us to take this work forward.
