The Marginalised Mainstream: Literature, Culture and Popularity – Conference Report.

sgoodman

The Marginalised Mainstream: Literature, Culture and Popularity is an annual event held at the Institute of English Studies in Senate House, University of London, co-organised by Sam Goodman (BU), Emma Grundy-Haigh and Brittain Bright (Goldsmiths). The aim of the initiative is to focus on those areas of popular culture that are critically and academically marginalised, or once popular authors or works that have since fallen into obscurity.

This year’s event took place on the 28^th-29^th November and featured BU’s Bronwen Thomas (Media School) and Naomi Braithwaite (Nottingham Trent) as its keynote speakers, delivering talks on online fan culture and the social performativity of shoes respectively. The theme of this year’s conference was Disguise, which led to a particularly varied and creative set of submissions, covering topics as diverse as showgirls and burlesque, spy fiction, Ice Road Truckers, confessional poetry, Game of Thrones, Indonesian superheroes, and Raffles the Gentleman Thief. There were also a selection of plenary panels featuring Len Platt (Goldsmiths) on musical theatre of the 1920s, Mariadele Boccardi (UWE) on neo-Victorian novels and science, and Andrew Harvey (Birkbeck) on sport and literature.

Marginalised Mainstream is supported by the Narrative Research Group within the Centre for Journalism and Communication at BU, and regularly attracts speakers and attendees from across the globe; this year’s event featured delegates from North America, India, Australia, China, and Russia, as well as from the UK and Europe. There is an emphasis on attracting early career and PGR delegates as well as established academics, and the delegates reflected a wide spectrum of career stages.

Details of the next event (scheduled for September 2015) will soon be released on the website: www.marginalisedmainstream.com. The theme of next year’s conference will be ‘Play & Performance’, and we welcome any informal enquiries at marginalisedmainstream@gmail.com.

WREN at BU

Fusion kskoog

Academics, researchers and professionals from the Women’s Radio in Europe Network (WREN) came together at Bournemouth University for a two day workshop, on November 14-15. There were thirteen of us, representing the Netherlands, Denmark, Britain, Turkey, Australia and Portugal.

WREN is an international academic research network investigating the history and role of women’s radio in Europe (and beyond). We were joined by Maria Williams, an award-winning radio producer, podcast-maker and media trainer – and the founder of Sound Women (http://www.soundwomen.co.uk/). Sound Women aims to encourage, promote and support women in today’s UK radio industry, and it was generally acknowledged by all participants how important history is for the current debates around women in the media.

The first day started with short presentations where participants presented current research and interests, and ideas and thoughts for future collaborative research. In the afternoon students and staff were invited to join ‘In Conversation with WREN’, a discussion about WREN research and women’s contribution to radio. Our panel of speakers included Maria Williams (Sound Women), Caroline Mitchell (University of Sunderland), Nazan Haydari (Istanbul Bilgi University) and Carolyn Birdsall (University of Amsterdam). The second day focused on the network’s plans to secure future research funding and how to develop the work of WREN further.

This workshop was made possible through the Fusion Investment Fund (the Staff Mobility and Networking Strand) which supported this first stand-alone meeting of the network. We are delighted to report that the workshop was overall a success, and WREN has now made some concrete plans for the future, so watch this space!

Festival of Learning 2015 – what could you do? A FACT OR FICTION style event?

Festival of Learning, Public engagement eloring

Do you remember the programme ‘Beyond Belief: Fact or Fiction’ or today’s ‘Fact or Fiction’?

These two very popular television programmes challenged the audiences and members of the public to identify which one was true, and which one was false. This used to be quite a thought-provoking activity, challenging people’s perceptions and beliefs.

Is your research challenging and inspiring? Will it stimulate debate and discussion on ‘what’s right?’ and ‘what’s wrong?’

A ‘Fact or Fiction’ themed event will not only be enjoyable and insightful for the event organisers, but also for the members of the public who will be a part of this exciting and educational activity. Theming your event and encouraging attendees to participate will help them to learn and remember this one-of-a-kind experience.

Here are some examples for inspiration from other Festivals (including the British Science Festival 2012 and 2013) of ‘Fact or Fiction’ styled events:

Cyber Pearl Harbour: Fact or Fiction? – Organised by Northumbria University

The picture painted by the US Defense Secretary of successful cyber attacks is one of doom and destruction. Is this a picture of cold harsh realities or political hype?

Food Addiction: Fact or Fiction? – Organised by Rowett Institute of Nutrition and Health, University of Aberdeen and University of Essen, Germany

There are many complex factors which lead to people being overweight or obese, but the basic question is why do some people eat too much? Are they addicted to food? Join our international panel of psychiatrists and scientists to explore whether eating food can be so rewarding that it leads to a state of addiction similar to that seen with alcohol and drugs.

CSI: Fact or Fiction? – Organised by Robert Gordon University

Internationally renowned forensic scientist David Barclay has over 30 years’ experience and has worked on some of the highest profile cases in the UK and abroad. Discover how science played a key part in investigating these crimes and how scientific evidence is evaluated in the overall context of the investigation. Supplementary workshops at RGU will allow you to see first-hand some of the forensic techniques used.

Will you participate in the Festival of Learning: Fact or Fiction?

If you would like to get involved in the Festival of Learning 2014 by hosting an event like ‘Fact or Fiction‘ and/or have some exciting ideas for any other type of public engagement activity, please register your interest with either myself, Naomi Kay: or my colleague Harry Gibson

And do remember the proposal deadline is the 19th December

Festival of Learning 2014 not ‘finished’ yet!

Festival of Learning, Publishing Edwin van Teijlingen

Whilst the call for 2015 Festival of Learning activities is already out, some of us are still busy with the 2014 one. This past year Prof. Vanora Hundley (Faculty of Health & Social Sciences) led a debate about the impact of the mass media on women’s view of childbirth. The debate was centred around The media is responsible for creating fear in childbirth.

Elizabeth Duff from the NCT and BU Prof. Edwin van Teijlingen affiliated with the Centre for Midwifery, Maternal & Perinatal Health argued in favour of the motion and Joanne Dewberry independent blogger, journalist and successful business woman and Dr. Ann Luce from BU’s Journalism and Communication Academic Group argued against.

The audience were given the opportunity to vote on the motion before and after the debate. The interesting and wide-ranging debate has been written up and it now published in MIDIRS under the title ‘Fear in childbirth: are the media responsible?’

The full reference is: Hundley, V., Duff, E., Dewberry, J., Luce, A., van Teijlingen, E. (2014) Fear in childbirth: are the media responsible? MIDIRS Midwifery Digest 24(4): 444-447.

Festival of Learning 2015 – what could you do? An ‘adventure’ styled event? Or a ‘treasure’ hunt?

Festival of Learning, Public engagement eloring

It is really important to hold events at the Festival of Learning that not only satisfy and engage the adult community but also the children of our community too. Teaching, inspiring and sharing our knowledge with those of a younger age will hopefully encourage them, to also be researchers in the future.

So, why not hold an ‘adventure’ or ‘treasure hunt’ style event at the Festival of Learning? This will encourage children and families to participate and create exciting new memories.

Children and young adults are engaged by events that involves them participating in a hands-on activity where they can either create or discover something. These are just some ideas off the top of my head, but if you have research interests in ancient history, history of the World, archaeology, dinosaurs, time travel and space – an adventure or treasure hunt style event would work extremely well in sharing your research with the younger generation in an exciting and engaging way.

Here are some inspiring examples of this type of event:

The Dinosaur Museum, Dorset regularly holds an event named the Great Dinosaur Hunt. This is where children search for hints and clues in order to solve a dinosaur mystery. Those that crack the code and solve the mystery win a special certificate.

At BU, our forensic experts could run an event which would enable attendees to solve a mystery and learn how ‘mystery solving’ is done. This would appeal to both the younger and elder community. Or perhaps if you have research in ancient history, you could do an event on ‘solving the murder of … in ancient times’.

Passport to the past was an event held at the Cambridge Festival of Ideas this year. This event allowed children to attend a drop-in session where they could design their own ‘passport to the past before taking a journey round the ancient world to learn more about our casts?’ Perhaps if you have a research interest in space you could host an event similar to this like, ‘Passport to space’ or ‘Your time travel ticket’, where children could be educated on space and time travel.

….

If you would like to get involved in the Festival of Learning 2014 by hosting an event like ‘Fact or Fiction‘ and/or have some exciting ideas for any other type of public engagement activity, please register your interest with either myself, Naomi kay or my colleague Rebecca Edwards.

BU’s ‘Science Stands’ on campus

Public engagement ssquelch

Following on from the success of the ‘Science Stands’ last week on the 4^th December, the second run of this on the 9^th December in the atrium had a lot to live up too. We had a huge number of students who were excited to engage with some of our PhD students and academics research, proving to be another succesful day.

Yesterday we had some amazing work showcased on TV screens by cyber-security which students could not get enough of, a really eye catching display on the TV screens streaming a live hacking attack map across the globe!

The psychological activities really did prove to be fun and humorous, taste testing tasks and psychological reasoning tasks showed to be a very great experience, seeing the shock on students faces when they were told that the juice they were drinking was in fact a simple cup of apple juice rather than the 101 different flavours they told us it was!

If you didn’t drop by on the 4^th or 9^th December, then do not panic! On the 16^th and 17^th March we are bringing BU’s ‘Science Tent’ to the courtyard which will be another opportunity to participate in some of the tasks seen at the ‘Science Stands’ and more that you regrettably missed out on, so get your fluffy wig and long white jacket at the ready, because March is going to be a big one!

If you gained some inspiration from these activities hosted yesterday, then why not run your own public engagement activity? The deadline to submit an event at next year’s Festival of Learning is coming up on the 19^th December so make sure you do not miss out on this fabulous opportunity.

Festival of Learning 2015 – What could you do? Limited time but wanting to share?

Festival of Learning gibsonh

The Festival of Learning 2015 is a fantastic way to engage public audiences in your research. Sometimes it’s difficult putting together an event that lasts several hours, so how about an hour lecture on your research?

To engage your audience, could your event be interactive or spark a short debate? Could it be linked to ideologies within a film that an audience could relate to? Or perhaps a topical discussion that has had national coverage? If you have an event idea, think about the intended audience and what would appeal to them.

A lecture, seminar, interactive laboratory to name a few could all be run within an hour session, why not try it?

The next Festival of Learning will be held during 11^th – 17^th July 2015. If you would like to hold an event as part of this Festival, please complete a proposal form. The deadline for proposals is midday on Friday 19^th December.

If you have an idea for a Festival of Learning event that you would like to discuss or for general enquiries, please contact Naomi Kay on 61342.

UK Dementia Congress 10th – 14th November 2014

Public engagement, Research themes mobrien

Dr Michelle Heward, Ben Hicks and Sophie Bushell represented the Bournemouth University Dementia Institute (BUDI) at this year’s National Dementia Congress in Brighton between the 10^th and 12^th November. This is the UK’s 9^th Dementia Congress, organised and hosted by the Journal of Dementia Care. The Congress attracted professionals from a vast array of backgrounds from artists and architects to nurses and social care commissioners with over 200 individuals presenting their work during the event. Highlights amongst the spoken presentations included a fantastic and very moving presentation by people living with dementia and their carers from the Dementia Engagement and Empowerment (DEEP) group and Carers Call to Action and the keynote address by Dr Stephen Judd entitled ‘Making Change Happen’.

For BUDI, additional highlights were the two presentations delivered by our very own Dr Michelle Heward who reported on two of her most recent projects:

The Dorset Dementia Friendly Communities (DFC) Project Evaluation – reporting on the findings of an evaluation of the first year of activity in the seven localities of the Dorset DFC initiative and exploring how far the Dorset DFC project was able to contribute towards assisting people with dementia to be able to feel supported within their community, and have choice and control of their lives. Click here for the full evaluation report.
The Social Care and Support Needs of Adults with Concurrent Dementia and Visual Impairment – the aim of the project was to investigate how best to provide care and support for adults living with both conditions in a range of housing settings, and develop evidence-based practice guidance to improve social care and support. Click here for more information about this project.

In addition to the speakers there were numerous stands with information about products and services designed to support people to live well with dementia, poster presentations and additional attractions. The most popular of these appeared to be a cookery demonstration by Peter Morgan-Jones demonstrating a technique to improve nutrition and enjoyment of food for people who have difficulties swallowing.

Two of the most delightful things about this Congress were the number and variety of individuals who were clearly passionate about making positive impact upon the lives of people with dementia and those who care for them and the breadth of innovative interventions designed to achieve this. For more information about this event please click here.

Festival of Learning 2015 – what could you do? TV programme + Research = A new way of engaging!

Festival of Learning, Public engagement eloring

Does your research have a connection to popular TV programmes? Or can you link your research to a popular TV programme? If yes, why not present your research in a way that the public will find entertaining and appealing?

A few research topics that spring to mind are: space, food, genetics/superhero, law, CSI and sport.

Organising an event in this engaging format is bound to bring the members of the public into our University! Statistics show that 97% of UK households own a television, and in 2012 the UK population was estimated at 63.7million. This shows that apart from a small 3%, all UK citizens watch the television.

Here is our own BU example:

In November, Professor Iain MacRury gave a very insightful and engaging presentation at Café Scientifique which stimulated a ‘hot’ discussion and debate. Prof. MacRury’s talk was on the Inner World of Doctor Who, which looked at the psychology behind the show’s popularity.

Whether you structure your event the same way as a television programme, for example; QI or if it is somehow related to the programme, for example; a space lecture could be related to Star-trek or Star Wars, the members of the public will always remember what they have learnt from this event because it is memorable, fun, engaging and interesting.

Please remember that the open call for proposals closes on 19th December! If you wish to put forward an idea, please contact me (Naomi Kay) as soon as possible!

UKRO visit to BU – last chance to reserve your place!

Training gashton

Our UKRO contact, Maribel Glogowski, will be coming to Bournemouth on December 11th. We benefit from the services, information and support provided by UKRO throughout the year but this is your opportunity to see and speak to our representative in person. This year Maribel will be making two presentations open for all to attend.

Both presentations address H2020 but rather than just being another overview we’ve asked Maribel to feedback on H2020 so far and then to zoom in on an area we do a lot of work in but which can be difficult to place in H2020 – Social Science and Humanities. As H2020 has sought (with varying degrees of success) to ‘embed’ elements of Social Science and Humanities across the whole work programme; collaborations across disciplines have become increasingly standard and as impact has moved (particularly in the EU) to the top of the agenda insights into the role of Social Sciences and Humanities in H2020 are pertinent across all disciplines.

The agenda (BG14: Lansdowne) is as follows:

9.30am-10.45am:

i. Brief introduction and overview of UKRO

ii. H2020 in action – what’s happened so far and where’s it going?

10.45am-11.15am: Coffee and networking

11.15am-12.30pm: Social Sciences and Humanities in H2020

Please contact Organisational Development by following the link if you wish to attend.

For those unfamiliar with UKRO (The UK Research Office), it is the European office of the UK Research Councils. UKRO’s mission is to promote effective UK engagement in EU research, innovation and higher education activities, by:

Enabling the UK research community to make informed decisions about participation in EU programmes and to maximise the opportunities available to them;
Supporting UK input into European research policy development and implementation through informing and interfacing with the appropriate bodies; and
Developing and maintaining a suite of quality services that meet the evolving needs of sponsors and subscribers.

Bournemouth subscribes to the information and assistance services of UKRO. For many years UKRO have been providing us with the latest EU information on funding calls, policy and providing advice on how to make a great application. UKRO are also the national contact point for the UK in relation to Marie Curie actions and the ERC (European Research Council).

News from the Consumer Research Group: The CR@B is dead … long live the CRG!!

PG research, REF Subjects, Research themes jmemery

The newly renamed ‘Consumer Research Group’ (formally known as CR@B (Consumer Research @ Bournemouth) … but now rebranded!) held its second meeting last week which again brought together consumer researchers from a wide range of disciplines across the University for lively discussions around the opportunities for cross-disciplinary research (over coffee and mince pies!). The aim of the meeting was to begin to identify themes around which groups or clusters of consumer researchers could discuss potential collaborations and plan activities for the future. From the meeting seven themes were initially proposed (see diagram above), and whilst these may initially remain fluid, they offer great opportunity for further discussion. A notable outcome from this meeting was the variety of consumer research areas being explored at BU, and the number of potential linkages that could be made between different groups, across and between these themes, to develop an even stronger research profile for the CRG.

The next meeting for the ‘Consumer Research Group’ will be 2-4pm on Wednesday 28^th January in PG19. Professor John Fletcher – Pro Vice Chancellor – Research and Innovation – will open the meeting.

Anyone who is doing consumer research of any description is welcome to join and contribute to the discussions – and as before there will be coffee and cake to help our consumer thinking along.

If you would like to come along please email any of the other contacts below so that we can get a feel for numbers. If you are unable to make this meeting but are interested in being involved please email us to let us know and we will keep you informed about future events.
