As a development platform and knowledge centre, we continuously receive research requests from all over the world. For example, we offer the opportunity to follow the work of specific methods, entire projects or collaboration with one of our ensembles. We are often part of different types of research projects in areas such as co-creation and technological development.
As a knowledge centre, it is important for us to develop our activities on the basis of the knowledge and experience that already exists, both within the field and in the education system. Here, knowledge is developed, built upon, explored and researched, and we also generate entirely new knowledge. Through our advisory board, among other things, we are linked to higher education and other relevant actors in Sweden and internationally. We are always looking outwards at what is happening in the world around us.
As we have evolved into a knowledge centre, we have received more and more research requests from all over the world. We have had master's and doctoral students collaborate with us or hold residencies, and we are involved in several research projects.

In the process of establishing ShareMusic as a knowledge centre, an international advisory board has been formed to ensure that the work is also anchored scientifically. The members of the council are Petra Frank from the Academy of Music and Drama in Gothenburg, Sofia Kjellström from Jönköping Academy, Beata Alving from Sigtuna Municipal Music and Arts School, Patricia Alessandrini from Stanford University in the USA, Deborah Kelleher from the Royal Irish Academy of Music, Frank Lyons from Ulster University in Northern Ireland, and Nigel Osborne (board chairman), Edinburgh University.
In order to carry out a methodically expansive work in relation to the academic world, the Board has drawn up a 5-year research strategy for the knowledge centre. The research strategy serves as a guiding tool in prioritising the research and collaboration requests that are received. The strategy also provides future direction for selection to our digital knowledge base.
"The strategy is focused on inclusion. It is designed to encourage and facilitate investigation of the nature of inclusive art making, with a view to understanding more fully its nature and dynamics, raising standards, and extending the breadth and depth of innovative practice."
Nigel Osborne
ShareMusic is setting up a digital knowledge base. We are collecting peer-reviewed material from the humanities and other fields for this knowledge base, with a focus on inclusion and artistic development. It will also contain user guides, concrete examples and case studies, reports, films and much more, developed by or in collaboration with ShareMusic. There may also be material we have collected from other institutions and organisations.
Our knowledge base will become a leading international source for both experience, sharing and research in the field. Today, there is nothing like it that brings together knowledge in inclusive arts work from around the world.
We are also working a lot on an area that deals with remote creative work — the development of a remote performance platform. The development of remote co-creation platforms can open up entirely new possibilities for creating art. It is also one of the areas in our research strategy, and in the context of the 2020 Corona pandemic, this work became highly urgent.
When ShareMusic was established as a knowledge centre, an advisory board was formed to anchor the work academically.

Our own ensembles are an extremely important part of the development and resources that the Knowledge Centre has to offer.
