Performing Abergavenny creating connected community

项目摘要

This project will examine issues dividing the town and community of Abergavenny, Monmouthshire. In conjunction with two community organisations, we are seeking to create questions that interrogate divisions, begin to overcome them and develop plans for a cohesive 'communal' future. Methods used and findings from the community project will be articulated, analysed and disseminated in public fora and in academic articles.This project builds upon two AHRC funded projects. First, Walkerdine et al's research in Abergavenny for the Connected Communities Programme, 'Community as micro-sociality' (2011-12) discovered that Abergavenny as a community is geographically disconnected along north/south fault lines, historically related to class and dislocation. Second, and also attached to the AHRC theme, Mackey et al's project 'Challenging concepts of 'liquid' place through performance practices in community contexts' (2011-14) works with community participants and artists to interrogate people's relationship with their place through performance. The divisions in Abergavenny are marked, from the name given to the area ('The Reservation'), to lack of knowledge by south about the north and vice versa, and the difficulties and differences of being and moving through Abergavenny exhibited by both groups. In this context, provision of community support and services is geographically divided, which roughly equates to a class divide. Uniting these two AHRC projects allows us to approach 'community' as micro sociality and performance in an inclusive manner. Together with representatives from the community groups, we will co-create and co-design a project to identify questions which point to a) how the divisions are experienced and have come about b) how they may be overcome to create provision which is welcoming and supportive of both parts of the community c) draw up plans for a sustainable, communal future, identifying connected and integrated support for community in the light of funding cuts and in spite of historical divisions. This is the agreed starting point and 'hook' for the project. It has been devised through discussion within the steering group as background activity towards this proposal since July. The steering group includes representatives from the two community partners, Communities First North Abergavenny and Abergavenny Community Centre (south Abergavenny) as well as the three research team members and will be joined, in phase two, by members of the local council.Using a synthesis of arts, humanities and social science methods, the steering group are considering a series of site based performance events influenced by historical research to initially uncover the history of division within the town, as told by local residents. This knowledge will lead us to formulate specific questions for phase 2 about, for example, the context, history and current understanding of the town's divisions. These will form the basis for activities in the second phase which we anticipate will enquire more closely into these divisions, begin to ameliorate the situation and lead to developing longer term plans for conjoined resources and communal living - to be shared with local council and government. Because the methods of research have already been discussed in pre-project steering group meetings, we are likely to use primarily performative methods including, for example, walking and mapping techniques, as well as site-based community performance work.What is potentially of great benefit to communities - and researchers - is the question of how to develop a methodology coupling a series of techniques and modes of enquiry, capable of creating inclusive self-directional research by communal members, as well as being underpinned by an alternative, holistic arts based approach to community.

该项目将研究划分蒙茅斯郡阿伯加文尼镇和社区的问题。我们与两个社区组织合作，寻求创造问题，审问分歧，开始克服它们，并为一个有凝聚力的“社区”未来制定计划。将在公共论坛和学术文章中阐述、分析和传播社区项目所使用的方法和结果。首先，Walkerdine等人在Abergavenny为连接社区计划进行的研究，“社区作为微观社会”（2011-12）发现，Abergavenny作为一个社区在地理上是沿着沿着北/南断层线断开的，历史上与阶级和错位有关。第二，也附加到AHRC的主题，麦基等人的项目“通过在社区环境中的表演实践来表达‘流动’场所的概念”（2011-14）与社区参与者和艺术家合作，通过表演来询问人们与他们的场所的关系。在阿伯加文尼的分歧是显着的，从名称给予该地区（“保留地”），以缺乏知识的南方对北方，反之亦然，和困难和差异的存在和移动通过阿伯加文尼展出的两个群体。在这种情况下，社区支助和服务的提供是按地域划分的，大致相当于阶级划分。将这两个AHRC项目结合起来，使我们能够以包容的方式将“社区”作为微观社会性和表现。我们将与社区团体的代表一起共同创建和共同设计一个项目，以确定以下问题：a）分歧是如何经历和产生的; B）如何克服分歧，以创造欢迎和支持社区两部分的规定; c）制定可持续的共同未来计划，在资金削减的情况下，尽管历史上存在分歧，但仍确定对社区的相互联系和综合支持。这是商定的起点和项目的“钩”。自7月以来，指导小组通过讨论制定了该计划，作为这项建议的背景活动。指导小组包括来自两个社区合作伙伴的代表，即北阿伯加文尼社区第一和阿伯加文尼社区中心（南阿伯加文尼）以及三名研究小组成员，并将在第二阶段加入当地理事会成员。利用艺术，人文和社会科学方法的综合，指导小组正在考虑一系列受历史研究影响的现场表演活动，以初步揭示当地居民所说的该镇内部分裂的历史。这些知识将引导我们为第二阶段制定具体问题，例如关于城镇划分的背景、历史和目前的理解。这些将构成第二阶段活动的基础，我们预计第二阶段将更密切地调查这些部门，开始改善情况，并导致制定联合资源和社区生活的长期计划-与地方理事会和政府分享。由于研究方法已经在项目前指导小组会议上讨论过，我们可能会使用主要的表演方法，包括，例如，步行和绘图技术，以及基于站点的社区表演工作。对社区和研究人员潜在的巨大好处是如何开发一种方法，将一系列技术和调查模式结合起来，能够通过社区成员创造包容性的自我定向研究，并以另一种基于社区的整体艺术方法为基础。
