Live Art in Scotland Interview Collection

This dataset holds series of interviews (transcripts and audio recordings) with artists and practitioners undertaken for the Live Art in Scotland project. Spanning the late 1980s to the present, these conversations reflect live art’s grounding in a range of different art forms, contexts and communities of interdisciplinary practice. A cross-section of an expansive field as it has developed over thirty years, they offer new perspectives on the conditions in which live art’s signature experiments become possible, and the possibilities which live art might enable in return. The audio files are available by request for research and teaching purposes only. Please click ‘request data’ to begin this process. Interview transcripts and other documentation are available to download from this page.
