At this event on Monday 26 November, five Kent authors will offer brief reflections about the arguments and insights of their newly published books and discuss questions from an open audience.<\/p>\n
The event aims to celebrate the contribution of CSHE, CER and the Visual and Sensory Research Cluster (SSPSSR) to emerging research across theory and practice.<\/p>\n
One of the five authors is Dr Dawn Lyon<\/a>, who will introduce her new book\u00a0What is Rhythmanaly<\/em>sis?<\/em><\/p>\n In recent years, there has been growing interest in Henri Lefebvre\u2019s posthumously published volume, \u2018Rhythmanalysis\u2019. For Lefebvre and subsequent scholars, rhythmanalysis is a research strategy which offers a means of thinking space and time together in the study of everyday life, and this remains its strength and appeal.<\/p>\n \u2018What is Rhythmanalysis?\u2019 addresses the task of how to do<\/em> rhythmanalysis. It discusses the history and development of rhythmanalysis from Lefebvre to the present day in a range of fields including cultural history and studies of place, mobility, work and nature. It considers how the body is directly deployed as a research tool in rhythmanalytical research as well as how audio-visual methods can get at rhythm beyond the capacity of the senses to perceive it.
