For over a decade now, the debate on art has been dominated by the rhetoric of research. However, does the concept of artistic research still express its originally radical and experimental power today? The concept seems to have become hackneyed and obscured by method fever and academic jargon. 

Perhaps the time has come to invigorate its conceptual framework - for example through terminology referring to its companion in art, namely philosophy's branch of aesthetics. Could experimental and speculative processes of thought again be leading in aethetic debates and contemporary art? These are the issues that come to the fore in this publication through a series of projects, views, and perspectives connected to the project *Aesthetic Jam* - part of the 9th Tapei Biennial.

World of Matter is an international project investigating raw materials and the complex ecologies of which they are a part. In light of the acute problems resulting from human-induced transformation of the earth and its systems, it is tempting to strike a dramatic tone. However, the perspective of crisis also calls upon us to reconsider-at a fundamental level, and in slow, subtle, and unspectacular ways-how we understand and interact with the world of things. The investigations presented in this book, undertaken in many world regions and post-national spaces, propose a wide range of aesthetic and ethical approaches to the handling of resources, while challenging the capitalistic assumption that the planet's materials are primarily for human consumption. By drawing connections between works that derive from artistic practice, journalism, philosophy, activism, and other realms of research, World of Matter provides a place of commonality for eco-logical imaginaries.
