This symposium builds upon the success of the three-day investigation into ‘gesture’ held in Oxford in January 2024. Arising from this investigation was the notion that gestures can be bound within space and time; that they can enact – even preserve – meaning across the structures of images, texts, and performances. Continuing the investigative nature of the overarching ‘gesture’ project, this symposium aims to look more closely at the interrelations between the idea of the gestural and the textural, with a particular focus on the written word. The event will be accompanied by a small exhibition of work by the artist Lara Smithson, and will be followed by a drinks reception. We are delighted to welcome the following speakers: Professor Sos Eltis (University of Oxford) Dr Natalie Ferris (University of Bristol) Dr Francesco Giusti (Institute for Cultural Inquiry, Berlin) Dr Ewan Jones (University of Cambridge) Lily Stone (University of Cambridge) ​

Having a boat trip in Cambridge can give a good experience of punting on the River Cam and also get lots of interesting stories about each college at the University of Cambridge. However, the cost of it is quite expensive.

Trinity College

There is a statue of Henry VIII at the entrance to Trinity College. There is an apple tree on the green lawn at the entrance of the College, which is the source of Newton&#39;s law of gravity. When you enter the courtyard of the College, the magnificent building brings a sense of awe. The front hall of the church is filled with jade statues of famous graduates from Trinity College, including Newton, Bacon, Tennyson and others.

The Corpus Clock

The clock was a little unclear at night. However, standing in front of it and watching it ticking forward, the psychology is still a little inexplicable nervous. After all, time, no one can control.
