Feminist Making, Doing, & Sensing is the 17th meeting of philoSOPHIA, society for continental feminism. We’ll be meeting as a hybrid conference on Treaty 7 Territory in southern Alberta, hosted by Mount Royal University’s Library in Calgary, Canada on March 14-17, 2024. We will feature keynotes from Qrescent Mali Mason (Haverford College) and Natalie Loveless (University of Alberta). Panels include experimental making/doing sessions and participatory workshops as well as paper presentations, which take up “making,” “doing,” and “sensing” from feminist perspectives, such as: the affective, somatic, biocultural, human and nonhuman, sonic, pedagogical, archival, ritual-based, poetic, gestural, art-based, political, existential, relational, and experimental.
