A very belated post... I was lucky enough to gain a place on the week long 'Experimenting with geography: See, hear, make and do' workshop at Edinburgh University at the beginning of May. The workshop was organised by Michael Gallagher and gathered together a wide range of artists, social scientists and geographers, all who are interested in exploring alternative ways of re/presenting space and place.
The week was punctuated with presentations from practitioners, workshops and DIY time. Presenters I really enjoyed included Sans Facon, Victoria Clare Bernie and Louise K Wilson. All really inspiring stuff.
A discussion board was set up before the event and will continue to function, so if you are interested in learning more about the other participants and some of the project discussions have a look here.
The week also enabled me to take some time out from the daily grind of the PhD and spend time in a beautiful city just exploring and thinking about place. From these explorations, two small books will emerge. Postings on those shortly...
