It delves into the critical examination of disciplined practices and expectations that govern academic conference spaces, challenging the status quo and paving the way for innovative approaches to conferences. Through the utilization of posthuman, feminist materialist, and post-qualitative theories, the authors seek to disrupt the conventional knowledge production processes within neoliberal and bureaucratic conference environments.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTheir analysis, accompanied by rhizomatic writing and presentational styles, fosters a form of educational activism through theory. They critically interrogate the conference space as a regulated, normalized, and standardized mode of academic knowledge production, known as the \"AcademicConferenceMachine.\" By playfully subverting the dominant meanings and modes of conferences and workshops, the authors aim to demonstrate how we can enhance our interactions and collaborate more effectively in the production of research, both with and for each other.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe authors highlight the transformative potential of creative conference practices in opening up imaginative possibilities for knowledge production. This book appeals to a wide range of audiences, including established professionals, early career scholars, doctoral and masters students in Education and the social sciences. It serves as a valuable resource for those seeking to expand their understanding of conference dynamics, engage in critical dialogue, and explore new avenues for knowledge creation and dissemination.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 431g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367464837                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nikki Fairchild,Carol A.
