[Vwoolf] update on annual conference on Virginia Woolf

[stringsOf Light]

I love your creative thinking Mad. It sounds like bliss. There won't be any travel expenses, nor catering or hiring a venue expenses, yet there will be a conference most importantly. I believe it will be the most visited conference so far : ). You have my vote Mad.
Also, featuring a different location in the world for each day sounds fun.
Hope that it becomes a reality.

Hi Mad,
I think anything is possible if there are people willing and able to do the work! An online event would certainly compensate for some of the loss of being together next summer.

all the best, mark

This is just brainstorming- would it be possible to do a bare bones online conference that has regional hosts - say 3 sessions plus plenary each day hosted by a different location each day? I’m thinking about distributing the labor and maybe

This is just brainstorming-  would it be possible to do a bare bones  online conference that has regional hosts - say 3 sessions plus plenary each day hosted by a different location each day?  I’m thinking about distributing the labor and maybe having each day featuring a different location in the world … or something like that?



Just a thought…

A couple of people recently have asked me about plans for a Woolf conference in 2026. Unfortunately, there will be no conference next year. The person who had committed to organizing it dropped out some time ago and despite the best efforts of some others, it has not been possible to find an organizer and institution to hold the conference in 2026.

For anyone attending the conference in Sussex this July, there will be a time set aside to discuss planning for future conferences. Ane Thon Knutsen will brief us on her plans for the conference in Oslo in 2027 (already looking wonderful!), and I will raise the question (if time allows) of what to do given the current situation in the USA and the fact that an "annual" conference is now not annual.

All the best,

mark (aka Chair of the Steering Committee of the Annual Conference on VW!)
