DOCTORAL RESEARCH BEYOND READING AND WRITING
ALL MAPS WELCOME 1
This conference, held on March 19 (2008), was set up to explore the ways in which PhDs may change with the growth of practice-led research. With widespread interest in ‘new variant’ doctorates (the kinds of postgraduate developments described by writers such as Chris Parks at Lancaster University) and the Arts and Humanities Research Council promoting projects that move ‘beyond text’, it is an opportune moment to discuss the role of materiality (material culture, plastic arts, etc.) and performativity (music, theatre, exhibition-going) in research that is, in good part, realised through non-textual forms of communication.
‘All Maps Welcome’ was supported by research training funding from the AHRC with the aim of generating debate in a wider range of disciplines than those immediately associated with the creative arts.
