The Writer's Table

The Writers’ Table is a series of films, conversations and workshops taking place at IAF House, Dublin, between October and November.

<h2>Welcome to Staging Ground!</h2>Come join us at IAF House on October 4, 2025 at 4:00 PM (Europe/Dublin Time) for an exciting event with film screenings, a book launch and a conversation between writer, researcher and curatorial organiser John Bingham-Hall and Emily Jones and Nicolas Howden, members of design and research collective Rubble. The event is free and open to all those interested in architecture, design, cities and writing, and includes a reception, booking essential.-We know that infrastructures shape the ways we move, but how do our bodies act back on these systems? How might artforms like film and choreography work together with design to re-stage our relationship to infrastructural spaces, and notice the traces we leave on them? And what might we learn from bringing Paris’ Périphérique ring road into dialogue with transformations to infrastructures and public spaces in Dublin?In response to these questions, this event brings together work produced as part of Staging Ground, a residency hosted by Theatrum Mundi in Paris as part of the LINA European Architecture Programme. It also marks the launch of a hybrid print and online publication of the same name.Screenings of works by filmmaker Jonathan Steiger and choreographer Myrto Delimichali investigate infrastructures of rest and informal movement around the Périphérique. These will be followed by a reading by design and research collective Rubble from a response essay connecting these issues to their public space projects in Dublin.Finally, in a conversation led by book editor John Bingham-Hall, with Emily Jones and Nicolas Howden (rubble), we will explore how performative and bodily perspectives can help better understand the implications of rapid infrastructural change.
