• Addresses the very notion of what creative practice research is, its challenges within the academy and the ways in which it contributes to scholarship and knowledgeExplores the tensions between creative inspirations and the reality of having to produce work, which is also a contribution to knowledge that can be measured against governmental standards, rules and regulationsIntroduces the concept of tactical compliance and its implications for creative practitionersIncludes reflective essays from film and media studies practitioners and researchersBringing together a range of creative practitioners and notable scholars, such as Thomas Elsaesser, Catherine Grant, Roberta Mock, Warren Buckland, Kiki Tianqi Yu, William Brown and others, this fascinating collection explores the challenges of retaining integrity during times of political and economic tensions in higher education and elsewhere.Creative Practice Research in the Age of Neoliberal Hopelessness offers a space for reflection for both practitioners and theorists, examining the conflict between creative inspiration and the reality of having to produce work that contributes to human knowledge, and that can also be measured against governmental standards, rules and regulations. The contributors present a radical and much-needed intervention that will interest all academics engaged with creative practice research. It also contains one of Thomas Elsaesser’s final pieces of writing, a unique personal account of the making of his first and only film The Sun Island
