Day conference: “performing our practice
practising our performance
intuition and expertise in the wake of the evidence movements”
organised by Middlesex University, UCL and City University
Venue: The Old Refectory, University College London, Gower Street
8th November, 2005.
Practitioners in activities as diverse as medicine and nursing,
creative and performing arts and psychoanalysis face new challenges.
These are to do with how they identify, reflect on, describe and
account for the knowledges they use and develop in their practice
(and indeed as practice). This day conference offers a rare
opportunity for practice disciplines to discuss such issues. The day
conference will also interest those exploring the relationships
between the State and the arts, science and governance and philosophy
of knowledge.
Confirmed speakers and discussants so far:
Sue Dopson, Fellow in Organisational Behaviour, Templeton College,
University of Oxford
Trish Greenhalgh, Professor of Primary Health Care, University
College, London
Susan Melrose, Professor of Performance Arts, Middlesex University
Bernard Burgoyne, Professor of Psychoanalysis, Middlesex University
Video work: Helen Bendon and Salome Voegelin, Middlesex University
Anthony Pryce, Reader in Sociology of Sexual Health, City University
Michael Traynor, Professor of Nursing, Middlesex University
Aims of the conference
To explore the impact on professional identity of the contemporary
promotion of particular knowledge forms within healthcare,
psychoanalysis and the arts
To explore psychoanalytic understandings of the recent promotion of
‘evidence’ in healthcare practice and policy
To explore the “knowledge-status” of expert practices which may have
been marginalised in rationalist accounts of process
To explore the rapid emergence and funding of practice-led research
in the arts, and the implications where some of those arts are ephemeral
To explore theoretical and political issues to do with knowledges
engaged in expert practice in contemporary UK public sector
organisations
