The Routledge Companion to Research in the Arts is a major collection of new writings on research in the creative and performing arts by leading authorities from around the world. It provides theoretical and practical approaches to identifying, structuring and resolving some of the key issues in the debate about the nature of research in the arts which have surfaced during the establishment of this subject over the last decade.
Contributions are located in the contemporary intellectual environment of research in the arts, and more widely in the universities, in the strategic and political environment of national research funding, and in the international environment of trans-national cooperation and communication. The book is divided into three principal sections – Foundations, Voices and Contexts – each with an introduction from the editors highlighting the main issues, agreements and debates in each section.

The DVD Study Edition RECORD_AGAIN! 40YEARSVIDEOART.DE–PART 2 presents 60 outstanding video works by 58 artists and artist groups spanning the years between 1968 and 2008, thus continuing work begun by 40YEARSVIDEOART.DE–PART 1 in 2006.
The second edition focuses on the early years of video. Many of the tapes have survived a 25-year period in storage, and thanks to the means of presentation that have meanwhile become available, are now presented here for the ìirst time: since the old equipment has longsince become obsolete, the bulk of the video collection was likewise unserviceable. However, the ZKM | Laboratory for Antiquated Video Systems has devised special equipment for the project, consequently making it possible to digitize over 50 of the different video formats dating from the mid-1960s to the mid-1980s, and to thereby preserve them for posterity. The resulting footage has a running time of more than 25 hours, and encompasses both old and new works ranging from early art-video recordings of performances, interviews or documentaries on the art scene, to politically motivated works, all of which are presented in this anthology.

In 2007 I made a double intervention in the Documenta Kassel: 1) I took red poppies
from the art work of Sanja Ivekovic: "Poppy Field" and I have extracted the DNA from them.
A month later I have disolved the frozen DNA in water where were living water-worms
(Biomphalaria glabrata). I have transmitted through Baby- calls their own genoma.

Cape Town, Southafrica, 2004: I can look on the hunters in the distance.
The sun-light, the handler and the dogs. The suppression of distance.
To escape, to copulate to eat. The species classification is dissected.
The strategy of food procurement and food storing. The hunter is in tune
with the prey. Tiny grains of sounds. To disable or to kill.
The victim's heads: Stay tuned! and today the challenging words are :
behavioral, carnivorous, insects, velocity!

RECORD > AGAIN! 40 JAHREVIDEOKUNST.DE – PART 2
Edith Russ Site for Media Art
27 February 2010 – 16 May 2010
RECORD > AGAIN! – 40JAHREVIDEOKUNST.DE – TEIL 2 continues the work of the Part 1 presented in 2006 and focuses particularly on the early days of video art from the late nineteen sixties.
The difficult problematic was initially a purely technical one: While many tapes have survived, there had become impossible to play them. The old machines were lost and the tapes were usually unplayable. For the project RECORD > AGAIN!, a functioning assembly of technical devices for obsolete video systems was established at the ZKM | Laboratory for antiquated video systems. This made it possible to digitalize over fifty different video formats from the mid 60ies to the mid 80ties, thus preserving them for posterity.
Over the course of the work, numerous videos that were considered lost because no one had been able to watch them for over 25 years, became visible. Other were preserved as fragments in various versions and had to be meticulously reconstructed. Several pieces only existed in poor copies and had to be restored and newly digitalized. And some works are now being shown as they were initially conceived approximately 30 years ago.
RECORD > AGAIN! thus presents, decades later, several premieres and numerous repeat performances by and with: Joseph Beuys, Gábor Body, Claus Böhmler, Klaus vom Bruch, Holger Czukay, Lutz Dammbeck, Flatz, Michael Geissler, Jörg Herold, Jochen Hiltmann, Nan Hoover, Wolf Kahlen, Edmund Kuppel, Urs Lüthi, Ernst Mitzka, Michael Morgner, Marcel Odenbach, Klaus Rinke, Ulrike Rosenbach, Dieter Roth, Ulrich Rückriem, Reiner Ruthenbeck, Walter Schröder-Limmer, Telewissen, Ulay, Peter Weibel, Marcello Mercado, Ursula Wevers and others. The material is largely being shown in the exhibition on historical equipment.
The catalog published by Hatje Cantz Verlag encompassing circa 480 pages features texts by Siegfried Zielinski, Ursula Wevers, Peter Weibel, Ute Vorkoeper, Wolfgang Stickel, Klaus Staeck, Rolf Sachsse, Sylvia Martin, Claus Löser, Gregor Jansen, Wilhelm Hein, Wulf Herzogenrath, Walter Grasskamp, Christiane Fricke, René Block and Christoph Blase in addition to an illustrated history of video technology, explanations of present-day conservation practices as well as a comprehensive annotated bibliography.
