The debate on artistic research emerging worldwide in the field of visual art for some five years now tends to focus on what artistic research could be or should be. Nameless Science aims to expand that debate by showing the outcome of artistic research in seven examples of best practices from artistic PhD projects. A striking methodology in the practice of such appears to be the formulation of a certain problem from a specific situation-based artistic process and interconnecting that problem with various knowledge systems and disciplines. At the same time, all PhD projects deal with an artistic reinterpretation of both representation models and academic classification systems.
