Dormant Things
I wanted to share the photo that I took of our family of gifts yesterday; thank you all for your contributions.
Also many thanks to all of you who have already blogged about this week’s theme – please have a look at the wonderful posts, and if you were in Group 3 please add your own as soon as possible.
Following Aayushi’s post about her gift being ‘paused’, I wanted to introduce you to Sophie Woodward’s research about ‘dormant things’ that I also mentioned in class. She has published about this (see for examplepdf), but also keeps an interesting blog at:https://sites.manchester.ac.uk/dormant-things/blog/

Sophie Woodward has also written some articles about inactive/dormant items in wardrobes, seeing them as kinds of personal archives, which I find very inspiring.
