Do you ever go somewhere, and have a strong emotional response to it, such as happiness, nostalgia or fear? Have you ever wondered why we look for meaning in places and develop stories or legends about them over time? Well these behaviours are known as a sense of place.
In general, sense of place describes our relationship with places, expressed through the intangible (and tangible) aspects of human life: emotions, imagination, sound, touch, stories, sight, smell and personal experiences.
The aim of this podcast is to explore these different relationships we have with the places that surround us. How they make us feel, and how in turn this affects our culture and day to day lives. To do this, the podcast will bring together the variety of disciplines & people that try to understand and explore ‘sense of place’.
Discussions will draw on a range of personal tales and thoughts from guests alongside more in-depth interviews about particular practices that focus on understanding sense of place.

Ep 17: Liminality from an Archaeological perspective ft. Rebecca Lambert
In today’s episode, I chat with Archaeological researcher Rebecca Lambert. Bec's love for both contemporary and Neolithic liminal space informs her fresh perspective on how we perceive the world around us.
Bec has four key research projects, all of which exhibit her interest in liminality - 'Dialects of the Hum', 'Future Ghosts – We Are All Ghosts in the Making', 'Underpasses are Liminal Spaces', and 'Paranoid Architecture – Ballardian Concepts Within Neolithic Contexts'.
We explore each of these projects in detail, discussing the archaeology of the future, the importance of community engagement, the use of Ballardian concepts within Neolithic contexts + much more!
