Corrupted Files is a non-hierarchical journal of research by students at all levels of study (Levels 4-7) and staff at Ravensbourne, as well as that of external contributors. The journal was initiated by Contextual Studies at Ravensbourne, with Dr Sara Andersdotter as its Editor. Corrupted Files is thematic, open access, and published annually in both online and hardcopy formats. Its aim is to serve as a platform through which undergraduate work is shared as research, sitting alongside the research of more experienced academics and practitioners. The journal thus plays a crucial part in a strategic drive towards the support and dissemination of undergraduate research, and the creation of a more inclusive research culture.
