Christian Ernsten presents at CHAT 2018

At the 2018 Contemporary and Historical Archaeology in Theory (CHAT) conference, taking place form 26-28 October 2018 at Aarhus University (Denmark), Christian Ernsten co-organizes the workshop on “A heritage walk into the Anthropocene”. Here, he will present on the Anthropocene archives of Maastricht’s Mount Saint Peter landscape. 

In this workshop “A heritage walk into the Anthropocene” participants explore heritage research as forms of embodied methodology. They are engaged by the idea of thinking through the body, the affect and the senses as a way of encountering the troubled landscapes of the Anthropocene. Central to the workshop are notions as body as archive, landscape as archive and performance as archive.
