OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Laura Marcus Workshop: Life-Writing and the Internet
Join OCLW for the second Laura Marcus Life-Writing Workshop of Hilary Term 2024, led by Charles Pigeon.
This workshop will focus on two questions:
Firstly, how does digitization change our epistemic relationships to memory, the archive, and how we record and think about history/biography? And, secondly, how do we write truthfully and critically about the parts of life which “happen online”? Throughout, we’ll examine writers’ strategies for moving from information to insight.
Participants should bring an anecdote about stumbling across something while online/trying to conduct research.
