This workshop is for colleagues to discuss their practice and research on the materialities of writing. This encompasses everything from experiments in literary form, artistic engagements with writing, questions of apparatus from pens and laptops to publishers and bookshops. There will be short presentations from Charlie Gere, Andrew Quick, Brian Baker, Claire Taylor, Emily Spiers, Sally Bushell, Doris Rohr, Erika Fulop, Andrew Raven, Joel Evans, Rebecca Braun, Paul Coulton, Declan Lloyd, Johnny Unger, and others, followed by a discussion of possible future developments. These might include bids for funding for networks and other research projects, curricula development, and more.
