Our Head of Department, Professor Anna Reading, appeared in a sold-out symposium on “The Stuff of Memory” at the Welcome Foundation.
The symposium investigated what role ‘stuff’ plays in the act of remembering. It proceeded to consider to what extent memory may be talked about in material terms
From neurons to possessions and public memorials, the symposium examined the relationship between memory, materiality and objects through a full day of talks and discussion. Details can be found at: http://wellcomecollection.org/stuffofmemory
