On Monday, the staff and students @SolentUni were treated to two fantastic talks from PhD candidates Rebecca Cohen and Daniel Bowring as part of the Contemporary Screen Studies Research Group 1/3
Rebecca discussed her research journey and read an excerpt of her PhD thesis “Is it me or is it getting crazy out there?”: The Joker and the Eroding Boundaries of the Hero and Villain.
Daniel outlined the findings from the early stages of his PhD journey, examining how the relationship between live and digital performance have been transformed because of the Covid-19 pandemic #phd #university #research #covid #digital #highereducation

Did my first ever guest lecture today (!!!) speaking to the @FilmTVSolent students about life as a critic and all things writing at @SolentUni 📽
Had some great questions from a really engaged group. Thanks @AdamofVaughan and @DrStuartJoy for the invite 🎬
Reminder! Tomorrow at 4pm Darren Kerr will be discussing his research titled 'The Unravelling of America and Emergence of Guilt-free Sex in the 1970s/ This is a free event open to the public held at @solentuni #film #research #AcademicTwitter tickets here: eventbrite.co.uk/e/the-unrav…
Its focus is on how explicit sex in cinema briefly moved from the margins to the mainstream. The argument presented explores a complicated cultural sensibility that was evident in the wider arts and cultural production of the time.
The events keep coming thick and fast! Up next, on the 8th of November, Darren Kerr will be discussing his research in a talk titled "The Unravelling of America and Emergence of Guilt-free Sex in the 1970s." @xdkerr @solentuni @SolentResearch eventbrite.co.uk/e/the-unrav…
