Screentime Airtime Facetime: Practicing Hybridity in the Cultural Field is the final publication of Going Hybrid, an applied research program on the future of hybridity in the cultural field. How could Covid-triggered innovations in digital cultural programming be turned into durable ways of high-level, participatory livecasting? How do you report on hybrid events? And how do you collect the results in a living and accessible archive? This publication gathers the findings of two years of hands-on experiments, introduces the developed prototypes, and gives insight into the research process.Because we believe in critical making, this book is itself a hybrid entity. It was originally a live-streamed online event and later turned into a print and a digital publication – each version a little different than what you would expect of a livestream, website, or print book. We encourage you to playfully explore the various versions of Screentime Airtime Facetime and hope that you will gain joy and insight from the form of this book as much as from its contents.Going Hybrid (2021-2023) was a research project of the Institute of Network Cultures, in collaboration with Willem de Kooning Academy, MU Hybrid Art House, Framer Framed, IMPAKT, Hackers & Designers, The Hmm, Varia, Anna Maria Michael, Ania Molenda, and Maria van der Togt.

This is the editorial paper for the virtual special issue “Using Q methodology in higher education: Opportunities and challenges”, consisting of nine original research studies from different international contexts. In addition to presenting novel findings, contributors were invited to discuss the following two questions at the center of the special issue call: In what sense has Q methodology served as a fitting approach to investigate subjectivity in higher education? What methodological opportunities and challenges arise with Q methodology in higher education settings? This editorial provides an overview and discussion of the various justifications mentioned for Q methodology. Furthermore, it collates the opportunities and challenges contributors discuss in relation to their studies using this almost 90-year-old methodological approach. The editorial paper concludes with recommendations for future Q methodological studies in higher education and beyond.
