Arts & Humanities Futures 2.4: Gehan Selim & Haili Ma Arts and Humanities Futures
-
- Arts
The recent years have brought extraordinary and ongoing challenges to societies and cultures, as well as bringing long-standing crises and predicaments to the foreground in new ways.
Each episode of this series of curated conversations brings together University of Leeds researchers from different backgrounds, disciplines and career stages to stimulate conversation about how research communities might respond to these challenges – and about the futures we want to imagine and realise.
This episode features a discussion between with Haili Ma (School of Performance and Cultural Industries) and Gehan Selim (School of Civil Engineering).
Gehan and Haili’s conversation explores:
· Heritage research in the context of digital platforms and participatory research
· Building richer narratives in digital heritage by engaging with young people
· “Performing heritage” and the opportunities to reach wider audiences outside of traditional theatre
· The challenges for research in the Global South, such as power inequalities, and defining ownership of heritage stories
This is the final of four conversations in our second series. These are released over April and May 2022 and are available via major podcast platforms as well as in an abridged video form on the LAHRI Website.
