Building Temporary Communities: The Mobilities, Geographies and Working Practices of the Festival Rigger.

利用我作为一个专业的节日帐篷装配工十年来的联系和经验，沿着我在人文地理学的培训，我将深入研究这些移动的社区的社会和经济实践，工作文化和空间，重点是舞台装配工和帐篷装配工。这个相对边缘化和过渡的工人群体面临着重大的社会和经济挑战，除了该项目的主要学术目标，我希望得出有利于该行业员工的结论。

Drawing upon my contacts and experience working as a professional festival tent rigger for ten years, along with my training in human geography, I will undertake an in-depth study of the social and economic practices, work cultures, and spaces of these mobile communities, focussing on both stage riggers and tent riggers. This relatively marginalised and transitory group of workers face significant social and economic challenges, and alongside the key academic aims of the project, I hope to draw conclusions that will be of benefit to employees in the sector.
