Our winter break in Taiwan starts next week1 and Shashwati and I have a pretty busy schedule of talks, conferences, and film screenings. I thought I’d post them all here so I can easily update the information in case anyone in Vietnam, Cambodia, or the UK wants to meet up with us or see our films.
We will each be giving a talk in Vietnam, complete with live-Vietnamese translation. I don’t know all the details yet, but these will both be held at the Faculty of Social Science and Humanities, Ton Duc Thang University. Both talks will be held in the Studio Room, floor 5, Library Building.
January 23-26. I will be attending the inaugural Conference on Asian Linguistic Anthropology (CALA) in Siem Reap.
I’m being flown to London by the SOAS Centre of Taiwan Studies where I am presenting a talk based on my book chapter for their forthcoming Contemporary Taiwan Indigenous Studies Series, but while we are there we will also be showing Please Don’t Beat Me, Sir! at The Centre of South Asian Studies at the University of Cambridge, and The Centre for Film and Ethics at Queen Mary University London.
February 5th, 6pm. Film Screening, “Please Don’t Beat Me, Sir!”, at The Centre of South Asian Studies - Cambridge University.
February 7th, 6pm. Film Screening, “Please Don’t Beat Me, Sir!”, at Centre for Film and Ethics - Queen Mary University London.
