Abstract:This volume comprises a curated conversation between members of the Material Culture Section of UCL Anthropology. Many of the chapters explicitly lay out the state of play in the field, challenging how the anthropology of material culture is being done, and arguing for new directions of enquiry or new methods of investigation. The contributors foreground research methods, with many of the contributors exploring the ramifications of specific methods, and exploring new methodological frameworks to address areas of human experience that require a new analytical approach. The 15 original case studies draw from a range of research contexts, including digital objects, infrastructure, digital objects, data, extra-terrestriality, ethnographic curation, medical materiality, and include timely reappraisals of now classical analytical models that have shaped the way we understand the object, the discipline, knowledge formation, and the artefact. This book is available as open access through the Bloomsbury Open programme and is available on www.bloomsburycollections.com
