The Open University, Walton Hall, Milton Keynes, MK7 6AA - Christodoulou Meeting Room 15
CCIG forum 29 continued our exploration of what is at stake in translations of the personal into the public and the public into the personal.
Focusing on spaces of artistic and policy practice it will ask questions about the diverse emotional geographies and affective practices that arise as practitioners working in different fields conjure connections between the personal and the public. What kinds of personal and public are constituted in different fields of practice? How are translations between personal and public, and public and personal effected? What is at stake in such processes? What sorts of work go into articulating the personal and the public? In considering such questions how is it possible to avoid the conventional distinctions between the public and private or the personal and political?
These questions link very different sites and sets of practices which our speakers begun to explore in relation to artistic practices, public sector institutions and policy. The Forum offered a space for participants to bring thoughts and ideas from a wider range of sites and practices.
