Jo-Anne Lester
Jo-Anne Lester is a principal lecturer at the University of Brighton. Within the broad context of space, place and culture, she is particularly interested in the embodied and performative dynamics of human experience and behaviour: encompassing the material, virtual and simulated spaces associated with everyday life. Her industry experience working on cruise ships underpins her continued interest in cruise ships as work and leisure spaces. Her Ph.D. investigated the architecture of cruise ship space through the medium of popular film, highlighting the multisensory nature of film and how the liminal realm of film space is experienced in and through the imagination, memory and emotion.
