Investigation of the Impact of Occupant Behavior on Building Performance in the UK and China
This event is supported by the Centre for Postdigital Cultures (Coventry University) and the Centre for Performance and Creative Exchange (University of Roehampton). How to uncouple the idea of ‘home’ from the realm of private life and make it an instrument to think and build public life?

As much as the organizing, maintaining and inhabiting a polis, this category is not a given, but a field of struggle and imagination.
C-DaRE Invites….Brandon Calleja Shaw
A half-day symposium with talks by Mark Amerika (UC Boulder) and Nick Thurston (University of Leeds/Information as Material) This is the second in a series of symposia hosted by the Centre for Postdigital Cultures (CPC) exploring contemporary approaches to experimental publishing. Over the course of the series, we will ask questions about the role and nature of experimentation in publishing, about ways in which experimental publishing has been formulated and performed in the past, and ways in which it shapes our publishing imaginaries at present. This series aims to conceptualise and map what experimental publishing is or can be and to think through what lies behind our aims and motivations to experiment through publishing. As such, it forms the first activity within the CPC’s new Post-Publishing programme, an initiative committed to exploring iterative and processual forms of publishing and their role in reconceptualising publishing as an integral part of the research and writing process, i.e. as that which inherently shapes it.
