Through the impact of Covid-19, societal needs for new tools for public interconnectedness, became evident. Research by key UK funding institutions (AHRC, UKRI, ACE) led to a deeper understanding of how participatory art contributes to greater mental wellbeing, but urgent questions remain about effective art facilitation strategies online. p_ART_icipate, a research team of artistic practitioners and Arts & Health professionals, examines the effect of online participatory art on social connectedness, devising clear guidelines for the online facilitation thereof. Leading researchers (Dr Gingrich, Prof. Havsteen-Franklin, Dr Grant, Dr Tymoszuk), practitioners (Analema Group, NeuroCreate, Noise Abatement Society, Joy of Sound), cultural institutions (Brunel, QMUL, National Gallery), and social and health organizations (NHS, Royal National Institute of the Blind), investigate if and how participatory media art can contribute to perceived social connectedness online. Four artworks explore the potential for collaborative, multi-sensory experiences to increase mental well-being for the general public, as well as disproportionately affected groups. These are:KIMA: Colour, an immersive art project developed for the National Gallery, interprets classic masterpieces of The National Gallery's collection as 360 sound and video experience. In collaboration with RNIB, Northern Ireland, we investigate whether participatory art can contribute to a sense of perceived closeness, through multi-sensory experiences among partially-sighted and colour-blind people using a wedge stepped model (N=15). Zeitgeist consists of an interface for real-time visual representation of Flow mental states, measured by EEG headbands. Participants co-create music remotely, while observing visual indicators of their own creative stimulation. Working with Central & North West London NHS Trust Foundation, we assess scales of social closeness (IOS-scale), and wellbeing. Using focus groups, standardized scales (IOS, sWEMWBS), observation and interviews, we gather evidence on effects of participatory art among healthcare workers (N=12), immediately deployable in the Arts & Health context (workshops, team engagements). KIMA: Voice explores harmonies between participants' voices. Voice frequency, amplitude and harmonies are visually represented, offering an interface for collaboration to participants in remote locations. Working with Joy of Sound, a charity specializing in participatory art for groups with motor-sensory difficulties, we create practice-based work with individuals in care homes unable to express themselves verbally. Building on a pilot with the Centre for Performance Science, we assess whether creative engagement through participatory art correlates with perceived closeness and mental well-being. This N-of-1 study design will apply a triangulation of methods (survey, observation, interviews), on a small sample of 3-5 individuals and their care-workers, recruited via Joy of Sound. KIMA: Noise focuses on effects of urban noise on health in recreational areas. Building on previous research at Tate Modern with scientist, Prof. Stansfeld (QMUL), this new artwork sonifies noise in urban parks as an interactive, site-specific installation. The audience designs their own soundscapes, be it on site, or from home. This research measures mental wellbeing and social connectedness, in the context of working-from-home professionals (N=60). Recruitment is conducted via BU's public engagement team and includes MA and PhD students.A larger, quantitative longitudinal study (IOS, sWEMWBS) encompassing all four artworks, assesses social connectedness and wellbeing in the wider public (N=200). All four artworks will be accessible for audiences, regardless of sensory disabilities or age. The research leads to immediately deployable outputs such as publications, exhibition of new artworks, a research report, and a whitepaper to inform future practitioners.

通过新冠肺炎的影响，社会对公共互联互通新工具的需求变得明显。英国主要资助机构(AHRC、UKRI、ACE)的研究使人们对参与式艺术如何有助于更大的精神健康有了更深的理解，但关于有效的在线艺术促进战略仍然存在迫切的问题。由艺术从业者和艺术与健康专业人士组成的研究小组P_ART_EMPATE研究了在线参与式艺术对社会联系的影响，为其在线促进制定了明确的指导方针。主要研究人员(金里奇博士、哈夫斯汀-富兰克林教授、格兰特博士、蒂莫斯祖克博士)、从业人员(Analema Group、NeuroCreate、噪音消除协会、声音协会喜悦)、文化机构(Brunel、QMUL、国家美术馆)以及社会和健康组织(NHS、皇家盲人研究所)，调查参与式媒体艺术是否以及如何有助于感知在线社会联系。四件艺术品探索了协作、多感官体验的潜力，以增加普通公众以及不成比例受影响的群体的心理健康。其中包括：为国家美术馆开发的身临其境的艺术项目KIMA：COLOR，将国家美术馆收藏的经典杰作解读为360度的声音和视频体验。我们与北爱尔兰RNIB合作，研究参与式艺术是否可以通过使用楔形阶梯模型(N=15)在部分视力和色盲人群中进行多感官体验，从而有助于感知到的亲密感。Zeitgeist由一个界面组成，用于实时直观地表示流畅的心理状态，通过脑电发带测量。参与者远程共同创作音乐，同时观察他们自己创造性刺激的视觉指标。我们与伦敦中部和西北部NHS信托基金会合作，评估社交亲密度(iOS-Scale)和幸福感的量表。使用焦点小组、标准化量表(IOS、sWEMWBS)、观察和访谈，我们收集了关于参与式艺术在医护人员(N=12)中的影响的证据，这些证据可以立即部署在艺术与健康背景下(研讨会、团队参与)。KIMA：Voice探索参与者声音之间的和谐。语音频率、幅度和和声以可视方式呈现，为偏远地区的参与者提供协作界面。我们与Sound的喜悦合作，这是一家专门为运动感觉困难群体提供参与式艺术的慈善机构，我们为疗养院中无法用语言表达自己的人创造了基于实践的作品。在与表演科学中心的一项试点的基础上，我们评估了通过参与式艺术进行的创造性参与是否与感知的亲密感和精神健康相关。这项N-of-1研究设计将应用三角测量方法(调查、观察、访谈)，通过Sound的喜悦招募3-5名个人及其护理人员作为小样本。KIMA：噪音主要关注城市噪音对娱乐区健康的影响。在泰特现代美术馆与科学家斯坦斯菲尔德教授(QMUL)之前的研究基础上，这件新的艺术作品将城市公园的噪音作为一种互动的、特定于场地的装置来发声。无论是在现场，还是在家中，观众都可以设计自己的音景。这项研究在在家工作的专业人士(N=60)的背景下测量了心理健康和社会联系。招募是通过波士顿大学的公共参与团队进行的，包括硕士和博士生。一项涵盖所有四件艺术品的更大规模的量化纵向研究(iOS，sWEMWBS)评估了更广泛的公众(N=200)的社会联系和幸福感。所有四件艺术品都将向观众开放，无论感觉障碍或年龄。这项研究产生了可立即部署的产出，如出版物、新艺术品展览、研究报告和白皮书，以告知未来的从业者。
