This group, termed &#8217;embedded creatives&#8217;, are one whose specific needs, aspirations and working habits have received relatively little study. I hope the work I do will help us start to understand more about this group and will bring embedded creatives into closer contact with each other.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">For my research, funded by the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ahrc.ac.uk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Arts and Humanities Research Council<\/a>,\u00a0I am seeking out embedded creatives who are happy to talk to me about their occupation, and what it means to be a creative working outside the creative industries. Embedded creatives can be found working in a range of\u00a0settings, using many different job titles. For example, a graphic designer working at an insurance firm, a communications professional working in a charity or a web developer working in local government would all come under the definition of &#8217;embedded creative&#8217; as they are working in a creative role outside the creative industry sectors.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This looks like a fascinating and promising area of research, so if you<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0are interested in being interviewed as part of my research, or simply want to find out more, please email me at: <\/span><a href=\"mailto:woodfords@cardiff.ac.uk\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">WoodfordS@cardiff.ac.uk<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"I have just joined the Creative Economy team as a Research Associate, tasked with investigating the important role that creative workers outside the core creative industries play in Cardiff\u2019s creative [&hellip;]","protected":false},"author":967,"featured_media":212,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[37,54,55,56],"class_list":["post-207","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-policy-and-research","tag-creative-economy","tag-embedded-creatives","tag-interviews","tag-qualitative-research"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pfHc5i-3l","meta_box":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/blogs.cardiff.ac.uk\/creative-economy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/381\/2016\/02\/Photographer-Flickr-naixn.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cardiff.ac.uk\/creative-economy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/207","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cardiff.ac.uk\/creative-economy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cardiff.ac.uk\/creative-economy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cardiff.ac.uk\/creative-economy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/967"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cardiff.ac.uk\/creative-economy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=207"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cardiff.ac.uk\/creative-economy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/207\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":498,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cardiff.ac.uk\/creative-economy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/207\/revisions\/498"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cardiff.ac.uk\/creative-economy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/212"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cardiff.ac.uk\/creative-economy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=207"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cardiff.ac.uk\/creative-economy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=207"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cardiff.ac.uk\/creative-economy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=207"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
