Placemaking across time: Histories of spatialised knowledge
Organised by Island Dynamics, this multidisciplinary academic conference on ‘Placemaking across time’ welcomes presentations on the interactions between place, culture, and time. Examples of potential topics include past senses of place; the cultural drivers and impacts of changes in place over time; the ways in which places are altered through selective processes of heritagisation; the coincidence of multiple places in a single location; how shifts in political and economic cultures alter place; conscious historical constructions of place; and how particular place ideals have risen in or fallen out of popularity over time. All presentations must have a clear focus on how people have known, experienced, conceptualised, and/or constructed place either in specific historical circumstances or across temporal scales.
