13Strand is a research team consisting of Mark Waugh, Beth Rowson and Trevor Horsewood.

The Scottish Arts Council has appointed 13Strand to undertake a feasibility study to review the existing development and support structure for Live Art practices in Scotland in order to recommend a strategy for improvement. If you are engaged in the development or facilitation of Live Art in Scotland, we would be grateful if you could spare 10 -15 minutes to complete an online questionnaire. Live Art Online Survey available from Friday 9 February 2007.

The aim of the research is to inform a robust and dynamic inquiry into the developmental needs of Live Art in Scotland. The key objectives of this study include assessing existing approaches and models that support both emerging and developing live art practitioners.
