Dear all, With apologies for cross-posting – and to those not in London / the Southeast of England – I am emailing to advertise the availability of places on the next City Maps doctoral training workshop<https://www.chase.ac.uk/city-maps>, funded by CHASE<https://www.chase.ac.uk/>, which will take place on Thursday 28 March 2019 at Birkbeck’s University Square Stratford campus (and in the streets and spaces of Stratford, East London). While places in this workshop series are in the first instance reserved for students funded by CHASE, or studying at a CHASE institution, we are pleased to make available up to four places for doctoral students studying at other institutions for the next workshop, with Clancy Wilmott<https://www.clancywilmott.com/> (University of Manchester). The description of the workshop is below. If you would like to participate, please send the following information to Mara Arts (m.arts.12@ucl.ac.uk<mailto:m.arts.12@ucl.ac.uk>) by no later than 18 March 2019: * Name * Email Address * Institution * Working thesis title * Summary of your doctoral research (400-500 words) * Dietary requirements * Other requirements Very best, Scott Rodgers Birkbeck, University of London Urban spaces and scalar traces In this workshop, Clancy Wilmott from the University of Manchester will lead a workshop with Scott Rodgers (Birkbeck) that asks participants to consider urban cultural studies through spatial theory - specifically concepts of scale, situatedness, and global-local encounters. Based at Birkbeck’s Stratford Campus, participants will conduct an in-situ geo-graphical exploration of traces across material and digital landscapes, evident and pertinent to their own research, in order to map how different scales – such as global, local, architectural and bodily - blend together, co-forming and conflicting in everyday urban spaces.
