In March 2021 Rob Simpkins (University of Sheffield) and I (Iza) organized a lab at the Association of Social Anthropologists of the UK online conference on Responsibility, hosted by the University of Aberdeen.
The aim of the lab was to develop a comparative ethnographic approach to ideas of artistic authorship and responsibility. Participants jointly planned and prepared questions for a collaborative podcast series of interviews with artists which explore their understandings of artistic personhood.
We are now recording and editing the podcast with our fantastic lab participants – watch this space!
