The Research Catalogue (RC) is a non-commercial, collaboration and publishing platform for artistic research provided by the
Society for Artistic Research. The RC is free to use for artists and
researchers. It
serves also as a backbone for teaching purposes, student assessment, peer review workflows and research funding administration. It strives to be
an open space for experimentation and exchange.

Hljómkassar / Inorganic Resonators
(2025)
Jón Helgi Hólmgeirsson
Hljómkassar is a project focused on developing and building innovative, directional acoustic speakers from Icelandic materials.
Inorganic Resonators were nominated for Product of the year at the Icelandic Design Awards 2024.
Painting as satire
(2025)
John Hogan
Satire is conceptualised as culturally charge, holding potentially powerful effects and impact. satire as painting provokes critical reflection on authorities, tackles values, dogmas, and taboos, disturbs power relations, and plays with cultural forms and identities. Bad news is seemingly everywhere, the is the place were satire exists. my practice utilises the codes of satire: analogy, parody, subversion, and irony, and realised through graphic elements; signs symbols, and icons, to apportion strength of meaning in my work through the lens of critique and entertainment.
Halo of Shame
(2025)
Dler Mariam Dalo
Språktap er en vanlig konsekvens av okkupasjon, fordriving og flukt. I Halo of Shame utforsker Shwan Dler Qaradaki hvordan den politiske undertrykkelsen av kurdisk – hans morsmål - har formet hans kunstneriske praksis. Med inspirasjon fra både vestlig klassisk kunst og islamsk miniatyrkunst skaper han et visuelt uttrykk som balanserer mellom øst og vest, fortid og nåtid, objekt og subjekt. Gjennom dette arbeidet utvikler han et dekolonialt bildespråk som kan romme de komplekse lagene av identitet, erfaring og motstand.

A Note on Early Quantum Mechanics
(2025)
Tolga Theo Yalur
Intellectual landscape in mathematics, quantum mechanics and physics, philosophy of science, and other fields. Henri Poincaré's mathematical insights and Albert Einstein's seminal thought experiments opened the door to understanding the most fundamental aspects of physical reality, from the subatomic realm of particles and fields to the largest galactic superclusters and the origin of the universe itself. The pioneering work of Poincaré and Einstein in the early 20th century fundamentally changed our understanding of the universe, calling into question long-held ideas about space, time, and the very core of reality. Epicurus’ groundbreaking reflection in these fields influence the fields of applied mathematics today, profoundly shaping the scientific understanding of the solid forms that make up the universe.
Epicurus’ Quantum Philosophy
(2025)
Tolga Theo Yalur
Quantum methods, based on differential equations, proved invaluable for many applications, ranging from building complex machines to mapping the motions of celestial objects. They represent a decisive advance in humanity's ability to understand and quantify the multi-dimensional reality. Epicurus’ groundbreaking reflection in these fields influence the fields of applied mathematics today, profoundly shaping the scientific understanding of the solid forms that make up the universe.
