Marres' projects focus on the senses, the vocabularies of the body, and have an emphasis on experience. The publication 'Sensing Art, Training the Body' highlights this exhibition and training program. This book brings together a collection of 12 of the popular cahiers that Marres publishes for each exhibition between 2017 and 2021. Each presents a variation on the traditional visitors' catalogue: some cahiers contain explanatory texts and images, others are picture pamphlets, and yet others take the form of a fold out art poster. It includes The Painted Bird (2017), Dreaming Awake (2018) and Museum Motus Mori (2019) and many others. In addition to the cahiers, this publication also offers a broad selection of exhibition images and two new essays. Publicist Edo Dijksterhuis writes about Marres' full-environment art installations and anthropologist and medical doctor Anna Harris writes about the Training the Senses program. Sensing Art, Training the Body forms a compendium to The Collection that compiled all the 11 cahiers between 2013 and 2017. Sensing Art, Training the Body is available with five different cover images from five different exhibitions: Dreaming Awake (1), Museum Motus Mori (2), Marijn van Kreij: Nude in the Studio (3), The Floor is Lava (4) and Marres Movements (5) .

With the Christian church in the west in decline, some churches are undergoing difficult transitions as they seek to become relevant, to both themselves and their surrounding cultures. Evangelicalism and the Emerging Church details an ethnographic study of a Vineyard congregation making sense of their Vineyard roots and their growing relationship with the self-proclaimed "emerging church" network. Through a rich account of congregational life and tensions, universal issues are raised such as relating to religious parentage, creating safe places for spirituality, Christian growth and maturity, communication with contemporary culture, and the challenges of identity reconstruction. This book is the first to conduct an academic study of a Vineyard congregation in the United Kingdom.

Point of Sale offers the first significant attempt to center media retail as a vital component in the study of popular culture. It brings together fifteen essays by top media scholars with their fingers on the pulse of both the changes that foreground retail in a digital age and the history that has made retail a fundamental part of the culture industries. The book reveals why retail matters as a site of transactional significance to industries as well as a crucial locus of meaning and interactional participation for consumers. In addition to examining how industries connect books, DVDs, video games, lifestyle products, toys, and more to consumers, it also interrogates the changes in media circulation driven by the collision of digital platforms with existing retail institutions. By grappling with the contexts in which we buy media, Point of Sale uncovers the underlying tensions that define the contemporary culture industries.

In these innovative essays, Vivian Sobchack considers the key role our bodies play in making sense of today's image-saturated culture. Emphasizing our corporeal rather than our intellectual engagements with film and other media, Carnal Thoughts shows how our experience always emerges through our senses and how our bodies are not just visible objects but also sense-making, visual subjects. Sobchack draws on both phenomenological philosophy and a broad range of popular sources to explore bodily experience in contemporary, moving-image culture. She examines how, through the conflation of cinema and surgery, we've all "had our eyes done"; why we are "moved" by the movies; and the different ways in which we inhabit photographic, cinematic, and electronic space. Carnal Thoughts provides a lively and engaging challenge to the mind/body split by demonstrating that the process of "making sense" requires an irreducible collaboration between our thoughts and our senses.
