'Common Grounds: On Site' - 20th to 21st April 2012, University of Sheffield School of Architecture
Hosted by the Sheffield Graduate Architectural Society
'Common Grounds: On Site' is an opportunity to collaborate with postgraduate students and other early-career researchers in exploring what it means to engage in situated/active spatial research, and what might be gained through a propositional or praxis-led research agenda. Researchers that actively engage on and with site, people and place are encouraged to apply from any 'spatial' discipline (including activists, architects, artists, geographers, landscape architects, performers, planners, sociologists, and others).
Deadline for submissions is 7th March 2012 (extended from 29th Feb). Please find further details and the full call at the colloquium website: http://exploringcommongrounds.wordpress.com/call/

This is the second event in the Common Grounds series, an annual colloquium for post-graduate students and early career researchers exploring methodologies for researching architecture and the built environment, with an emphasis on collaborative research incorporating innovative practice and activist methods.
'Common Grounds' is a self-organised and student-led initiative. It is not affiliated to a particular institution, but puts forward a non-hierarchical, collaborative way of working and placing value in research which can be appropriated by future participants and organisers.
This second colloquium, 'Common Grounds: On Site', is organised and hosted through GAS, the University of Sheffield Graduate Architectural Society, the postgraduate student-run society at the School of Architecture.
