Mobilities research is a&nbsp;new interdisciplinary field partly initiated at Lancaster and established by CeMoRe in 2003 \u2014 encompassing the analysis of the global, national and local movements of people, objects, capital, information and material things combining together to engender the economic and social patterning of life.&nbsp; The mobilities.lab is part of CeMoRe provides equipment and space for researchers, and its members develop mobile methods to explore the fluxes and flows, mobilties, immobilities and blocked movements of people, objects, information, ideas in contemporary life and to fold scholarly insight into innovation.<\/p>\n<p>Over the past five years the field has increasingly been considering the impact of mobilities in and through art and design, with art exhibitions at conferences such as: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mobilities.ca\/differential-mobilities-conference-montreal-2013\/\">Differential Mobilities<\/a>, Concordia University, Montreal (2012); <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lancaster.ac.uk\/fass\/events\/mobility-futures\/\">Global Conference On Mobility Futures<\/a>, Lancaster, (2013); <a href=\"https:\/\/ruconf.ruc.dk\/index.php\/NetUrMo\/NUM\/index\">Networked Urban Mobilities Conference and Mobile Art Exhibition<\/a> (2014).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Being Mobile is an interdisciplinary workshop series in collaboration with the Centre for Mobilities Research and mobilities.lab at Lancaster.
