We all have some kind of interest in exploring across anthropology and art - we each like the idea of seeing what its like to work in a group - having fun, being less isolated, making creative leaps, thinking more about art and anthropology, looking at some theory, testing out ideas were some of the reasons for people wanting to be involved.
We decided to meet about once a month for those who can make it. We talked about involving more people, including our children, (especially if we doing things that involved going
away).
We agreed to take it in turns to set up something for the rest of the group - and if desired to do this together with someone else. This could be anything. Ideas on the table are exploring what home means, finding shapes in chaos, looking at fairy tales at John Rylands Library, ethnographic filming, going for walks and train journeys, getting lost.
Our name, for the time being is Potters Parlour - Potter was a radical who had meetings in his parlour and Jane Webb tried to find out where he lived when she was doing her PhD (but didn't manage to?).
