Welcome to the Personal Histories blog

Hello,

Welcome to the new Personal Histories blog. Due to the success of previous personal histories events, the managment of them has become increasingly information heavy. As a result, we decided that it would be prudent to bring all the information that we have, including ticket details, event times and dates, locations, additional materials, and so on, into a single space, this blog. In many ways, it is important that the events are not simply treated as isolated afternoons, broken apart by a year of organisation and anticipation. No, it is important to allow personal histories events to crystallise into something both more meaningful and accessible. The advantages of a blog are clear; we can keep guests informed on our progress, who can, if they so wish, comment on our ideas and practices. Equally, it has been the case that materials from the events suffer from displacement; some are available on YouTube, while others are whisked away to be edited, or locked away in desks. As such, we hope that a blog will represent a solid step towards formalising ourselves, and of making the fruits of our labours available to you all.

We wish you our warmest regards,
The Personal Histories Team
