HOFSTRA CULTURAL CENTER DEPARTMENT OF WRITING STUDIES AND RHETORIC and the AFRICANA STUDIES PROGRAM present
A Space Between Dreams: A Research Journey
with Dr. Marquese McFerguson, Assistant Professor of Intercultural Communication within the School of Communication and Multimedia Studies at Florida Atlantic University
The Space Between Dreams is where imagination breathes life into ideas, where research becomes art, and where a creative life begins to take shape. In this talk, I retrace the journey behind my award-winning short film, not only the final product, but the questions, methods, theories, and personal interests that shaped its making. Braiding together academic inquiry and artistic practice, I explore how the film emerged from a space between dreaming and doing, and how that process became a reflection of my evolving creative and scholarly path.
