Invitation Becoming a Nose with Katie Puckrick Smells 4.30 - 6.30 11 October 2012 in Small Theatre, Richard Hoggart Building Goldsmiths, University of London in dialogue
with Alex Rhys-Taylor (Deputy Director CUCR): Exploring sociality through the nostrils of urbanites.Patricio Rojas (Doctoral candidate): Sensing and smelling diseased
and healthy bodies.Agata Pacho (Doctoral candidate) Smelling the sensual and the kinky as (a)sexualities emerge. Introduced and convened by Marsha Rosengarten (Director),
UNIT of PLAY In an article titled ‘How to Talk About the Body?’ published in a special issue of the journal of Body & Society (2004), Bruno Latour uses the example of
becoming a nose in the perfume industry to show the body as emergent and relational. To have a body is, he states, ‘to learn to be affected, meaning “effectuated”, moved,
put into motion by other entities, humans and non-humans.’ In this seminar we invite Katie Puckrik, a respected authority on fragrance and high profile writer and performer,
to engage us in the process of becoming affected: of becoming a nose through the art of smell. In doing so, we shall attempt a minor experiment in dispensing with ourselves
as fixed, stable and self-same beings by embracing a little of what the senses offer us. Katie Puckrik’s TV work includes The Word (Ch 4), The Sunday Show (BBC2) and
Pyjama Party (ITV), and her writing on culture, entertainment and lifestyle can be found in a range of publications including The Guardian and Elle. She has danced with
DV8 Physical Theatre, the Michael Clark company and the Pet Shop Boys, and sung with Sparks in their opera, The Seduction of Ingmar Bergman. Reviewers have called her
memoir, Shooting From the Lip, “Gonzette journalism…an ammunition-packed bad girl’s guide to life” http://www.katiepuckriksmells.com/For further details please contact
