Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
In this practice-based workshop, Stuart Bell and Sophie Seita will introduce various translational and translingual techniques of writing and making—asking about the political and ethical potential or pitfalls of these practices along the way. Specifically, translation does not just describe the movement from one language to another, but also the messy movement between languages, from one medium or material to another, and the many forms of rewriting and dialogue with other texts and voices through adaptation, appropriation, erasure, citation, and constraint-based or permutational procedures. The workshop will also consider queer and feminist approaches to translation, questions around tactility and texture, gesture, and the physicality of writing.
