Linguistics in the Pub at home May  2020: Fieldwork at a distance

We've all thrown our 2020 fieldwork plans in the bin. Now we find ourselves
in a strange new world of online work, and likely no travel, or greatly
reduced travel, for the the foreseeable future. This month we look at ways
we can continue our research collaborations with communities. What kinds of
research projects are possible in this radically altered landscape? And how
can we still support the languages and communities that we work with?

This LIP has a different format to usual. We will start with a panel
discussion (around 45 minutes) and then we will discuss the issues raised
in small groups for about 30 minutes. The panel discussion will be streamed
live to YouTube and will be available to view later.

The panel brings together six linguists who have already been doing
'fieldwork at a distance' for some time: Claire Bowern, Emiliana Cruz, Tom
Ennever, Bryn Hauk, Stephen Morey, Anthony Woodbury. The discussion will be
facilitated by Ruth Singer.

This LIP is at a new time, so we can include linguists based in the
Americas as well as Australia.

Linguistics in the Pub (LIP) is an informal monthly gathering of language
activists and linguists in Melbourne to discuss particular issues in
Language and Linguistics, usually with guest speakers (often visiting
international guests). As the name suggests, it usually happens in a pub or
bar, and the beer and food help make for a stimulating atmosphere.
The current LIP organising committee LIP is: Ruth Singer (Melbourne Uni),
Lauren Gawne (LaTrobe Uni), Jill Vaughan (Melbourne Uni), Chloé
Diskin-Holdaway (Melbourne Uni), Jonathon Lum (Melbourne Uni) and Andrew
Tanner (Living Languages)
