Atmospheres play a significant role in, and add an important quality to, our intimate, domestic and public lives, yet are often overlooked in social research, not least because of the methodological challenges involved in 'capturing' them. In this major conference celebrating the 10th Anniversary of the Morgan Centre, we will be using the theme of 'atmospheres' as our starting point for interdisciplinary dialogue.
Abstracts are invited in the following kinds of areas. These are intended to stimulate ideas and are not prescriptive.
Atmospheres in intimate, domestic and emotional life
Belonging, place and atmosphere
Smell, sight, sound, touch and taste
Political and socio-cultural atmospheres
Atmosphere, public events and crowds
Online/virtual atmospheres
How atmospheres can be 'captured' methodologically
What makes an atmosphere
Price: £160
Concessions: £80
