    The Call for Papers is now available on the MAMO website here. Closing date 30 September 2026.

  • This session invites participants who engage with a creative practice in their research to consider the communal impact of making. It may include (but is not confined to) papers regarding the relationship between their research and; writing, visual art, performance, film, music, and textiles. It will consider how various creative communities - academic, religious, familial, and social - allow us to generate fresh ideas in our research. This session particularly welcomes papers which combine personal and analytical approaches to their research. Participants are also encouraged to share their creative work as a part of the paper. Possible subjects may include:

    • Minority perspectives on communal creative criticism including neurodivergence, race

    • Creative community found in unexpected places

    • Difficulty finding creative communities

    • The failures and successes of the classroom as a place to foster creative research

    Proposals for 20 minute papers are welcomed. To apply, please email brooklyn.arnot@magd.ox.ac.uk with your proposal by September 20 2026 with a 150-200 word abstract, bio and affiliation.
