Live Events Research Network (LERN)

澳大利亚在过去十年里举办了雄心勃勃、具有创新性和社会意义的现场公共活动，可以令人信服地声称自己是这一领域的世界领导者。 LERN将提供一个灵活的网络，使用智能技术促进对现场活动的协作研究，包括但不限于表演艺术。 LERN将发展关于现场活动的社会和文化重要性的新知识；响应国家和国际研究优先事项的变化；在其研究方法中最大限度地使用新技术；在学术和行业研究人员和从业人员之间转移知识；并鼓励创新的研究生和实习生研究。

Australia, having staged ambitious, innovative and socially significant live public events in the past decade, can credibly claim to be a world leader in this area. LERN will provide a flexible network, using smart technology to facilitate collaborative research into live events, including but not restricted to the performing arts. LERN will develop new knowledge about the social and cultural importance of live events; respond to shifts in national and international research priorities; maximise use of new technologies in its research methodologies; transfer knowledge between academic and industry-based researchers and practitioners; and encourage innovative postgraduate and trainee-performer research.
