Memory & Perception - TECHNE Student Conference

Issues of Memory & Perception are integral to everything we do as researchers in the arts and humanities. At some level all of us – whether artists, historians, musicians or philosophers – must decide how to interpret the work of others, whilst simultaneously considering potential interpretations of our own output. Similarly, our research is intrinsically connected to what has gone before, and our personal relationship with the past undoubtedly has a formative influence on the shape of our own work and our conception of the world around us. We therefore hope that the theme of Memory & Perception will allow us to draw links between our diverse array of research interests and between our research and the wider questions engendered by these fundamental issues.

This year’s event will take place at the fantastic Rich Mix, one of London’s most respected independent arts venues and will include a wide range of papers, short films, poetry readings and musical performance which all explore the theme of memory and perception.
