A
conference dedicated to the memory of Robert E. MacLaury 1944-2004
The
conference will be multidisciplinary, although of particular interest
to those working in the fields of linguistics, psychology, anthropology,
philosophy, and vision science. The intention is to present new, ongoing,
and recent research in colour studies, providing a glimpse of the directions
in which the various disciplines are heading in their efforts to understand
colour in all its aspects. Speakers will be expected to present their
research in a way that makes it intelligible to those from other disciplines.
The
conference will be held in the WILT conference centre on the main Glasgow
University campus, with some meals on site and others in nearby University
facilities. Accommodation will be in student rooms (some en-suite) and
local hotels, with prices currently ranging from £15-£45
per night. The conference will be rounded off with an excursion into
the Scottish Highlands on the following Saturday, provided there is
sufficient demand. A booking form with details of charges will be available
in summer 2003.
