Beginnings and Creative Practice: A Research Conversation

School of Media, Arts and Humanities

Our MAH Research Institute theme for 2023-24 is 'Beginnings'. These Research Conversations are open to all interested faculty and PGRs.

Silverstone Building

Before the summer we collectively resolved that our MAH Research Institute annual theme for 2023-24 would be 'Beginnings'. Starting off an exciting programme of events linked to this theme will be an initial MAH Research Conversation on Beginnings, open to all interested faculty and PGRs at the University of Sussex.Following our regular format this Conversation will have three parallel strands (see below) and will culminate in a plenary session that will bring all three strands together. As always, the discussions will be informal, with the primary aim of encouraging connections and potentially sparking new ideas and collaborations. Each of the three themes will have a facilitator and will run for an hour and a half. The event will take place on the afternoon of Monday 16 October, between 2-5pm in the MAH Institute in the Silverstone Building in rooms SB302 (Research Common Room), SB112 (Ground floor social space) and SB312 (Doctoral Research Common Room). The three parallel strands will be: Beginnings and History – led by Chloe PorterBeginnings and Creative Practice – led by Jo WaltonBeginnings and Climate – led by Natalia CecirePlease come along and engage with our theme: you will need to register to attend through Eventbrite here (using your Sussex email address).
