Voices in Cultural Studies: “Junk Playgrounds as Infrastructures of Feelings”
Ben Highmore will offer a free lecture, “Junk Playgrounds as Infrastructures of Feelings,” as part of a Voices in Cultural Studies series.
Highmore will explore so-called Junk Playgrounds — bombed patches of ground turned into experimental playgrounds where children and young adults could build habitats and destroy them, start fires and dig holes — and their relevancy in this talk.
