A series of five workshops over ten months expanded the means of production and dissemination available to us to in order to move our work to new and more creative levels. The workshops were a great success, attracting the participation of scholars from more than 27 universities across the UK. The fifth and final workshop was held in June. It was a day of networking and collaboration, filmed by BU Media School graduate, Ben Mallaby. "Social Science finding its Muse", a film by Ben Mallaby & Kip Jones on the AHRC workshop series, was premiered at the ESRC National Centre for Research Methods Seminar University of Wales-Cardiff, 18th Sept. 2007. To date it has been viewed by almost 1,000 people online and shown at many events around the UK. View the film on the player below or Download
