OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

Image and Object: Collaborations and Confrontations in Art and Science
This experimental public workshop explores interdisciplinarity across the visual arts and the natural and social sciences. How do disciplines as disparate as neuroscience and anthropology study images and objects? What can the history of art learn from visual methods in other fields? Leading experts from Oxford will gather to discuss to the possibility, and pitfalls, of exchange.
