We invite contributions from arts and humanities post-graduate students and early career researchers that focus on collaborative methods and\/or engagement with site. We are looking for \u2018active\u2019 papers or performances, rather than a traditional 20-minute conference paper panel followed by Q and A style set up.<\/p>\n<p>We are particularly open to proposals for the following sessions:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Ambulatory (or \u2018plein air\u2019) presentations<\/li>\n<li>6 minute micro-papers \u2013 useful for sharing research in progress and for gaining feedback<\/li>\n<li>Performances less then 20 minutes long, to be shared in Saturday\u2019s evening session<\/li>\n<li>Video works less than 15 minutes long, to be shared in a curated showreel for a coach journey<\/li>\n<li>Workshops of up to an hour in length<\/li>\n<li>Discussion or reading groups up to an hour in length<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The conference is taking place over the weekend of 10-11 June 2017 in a bunkhouse on Dartmoor.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout the weekend we wish to create a community of knowledge sharing that promotes discussion and action through doing. It is intended that we travel to the site together from Plymouth via coach, and that we share food and dormitories. The conference will be low tech, although we can support the use of digital projectors. We are particularly interested in proposals that take us out outside, on to the moors, or that utilise the journey to and from the bunkhouse.<\/p>\n<p>Please note, due to the nature of the accommodation and the environment, the conference does present accessibility issues. If you have an idea for an alternative proposal that is impeded by the nature of this conference please let us know, and we will discuss how we can accommodate this or offer parallel sessions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong><u>Confirmed keynotes:<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.plymouth.ac.uk\/staff\/roberta-mock\"><strong>Professor Roberta Mock<\/strong><\/a> will be leading a practice research workshop.
