Today, research in art and design is flourishing. Firmly rooted in practice, this new approach is positioned at the intersections of art, design, and the sciences, responding to the complexities of contemporary society and environmental concerns. Sensory perception is at the center of practice-based research, and thus at the heart of .able. A peer-reviewed journal exploring the full potential of multimedia and multi-platform publishing, .able’s aim is to deliver visual essays to the academic sphere and beyond, to bring this research and creation to as wide an audience as possible. Additionally, the application allows users to navigate through contributions from different authors and experience art and science through images, offering a new way to engage with knowledge and creativity.
