Writing Sensation: Sense, Events and Encounters with Creative-Relational Inquiry
Speaker: Andrew Mark Gillot, University of Stirling and Leeds Beckett University
How do we convey felt, intimate encounters between people, shared objects, spaces and atmospheres? How do we inquire of moments that make themselves felt with the sparest of signs, in flashing glances and gestures; the felt feeling of relations in which unfamiliar forms take shape? Just how might we set about writing sensation?
Andrew takes on these questions with creativity, speculation and invention. His book illuminates the ‘creative-relational’ as a poietic and transversal concept of an inquiry capable of attending to the way events throw themselves together, and how forms take shape in the interplay of difference. Engaging with postfoundational and postqualitative approaches to inquiry, Writing Sensation offers readers both engaging, creative and affirmative readings of scholars such as Gilles Deleuze, Félix Guattari, Erin Manning and Brian Massumi, and enactments of how one may write the immanent moment of emergent circumstances.
