Survived the end of #ASCS46 ... a busy 4 days I'm just mentally reemerging from! Lots of good discussion around and between confetence sessions about ways to keep #Classics postgraduate community going

I gave my paper on Ovid’s exile works at #ASCS46 yesterday. This is a dumb piece of artwork I made for it that I am highkey v proud of

Come find our #OvidCorner at tonights post-keynote reception for #ASCS46 to hear about launching an #AustralasianOvidianSociety !

Incredible talk from Georgia Pike-Rowney on the ARTefacts project at the ANU classics museum! LOVE the creative responses and engagement with ancient content! #ASCS46

Hoping everyone is recovered from the dinner last night enough to make it to the second #Ovid panel of #ASCS46 in the first session this morning!

Another day another conference and I am once again talking about Dido's self written epitaph in #Ovid Heroides 7 #ASCS46

Survived day 1 of #ASCS46 thanks only to the heroic efforts of Chloe and @gemmaneall.bsky.social pushing me in my wheelchair - we can only hope we escaped sunburn ... this time

On Monday 3rd Feb at #ASCS46 I'll be presenting my paper 'Reading Dido Diffractively: Moving beyond reflection as metaphor' in the first of TWO #Ovid panels I'm pleased to have helped organise. Bringing quantum physics & some new materialism into #Classical literature-power in metaphors matters!

The #AIASCS session on queering time was an absolute highlight for me - It's a mark of a great panel when the panelists are so excited by each others work that the questions for each other flow fast and could go on! #classics #QueerTheory

I'm grateful to have presented in the SCS Ovid panel on the Heroides, speaking about my favourite swan song 🦢 Alicia and Daniel ran a wonderfully accessible hybrid panel, which set a high standard for the rest of the conference! I'm feeling lucky to be amongst excellent papers ✍

We are proud to have talented and creative team members who are engaged with consumer representative work across the cancer sector. Our CVSA Exec member Thomas Binns directed and edited this music video for Canteen Australia starring YAPS the puppet! youtu.be/jX5On6u_0OA?...

There's a special kind of joy I feel at an event where the organisers have made considerable efforts to make it accessible& inclusive. The #AWAWS Equity& Diversity lecture with the founder of Crip Antiquity Clara Bosak-Schroeder began with such a sincere offer to provide what attendees might need

@gemmaneall.bsky.social @emchambs.bsky.social and I have great plans for the Australasian Women in Ancient World Studies (AWAWS) Adelaide chapter for 2025, can't wait to dig in with pre-conference practice sessions, coffee, drinks, movie and more!

It was wonderful to launch the Adelaide Chapter of Australasian Women in Ancient World Studies #AWAWS last night w. @emchambs.bsky.social & @gemmaneall.bsky.social We had people from 5 unis at from a range of disciplines and career stages. Can't wait to see how this community grows!

Calling on Ovid and/or elegy people in Aus & NZ! @gemmaneall.bsky.social and I have been plotting an interest group so that we can get a cohort to keep up to date with International Ovidian Society events which are so northern hemisphere dominant. If you are interested in joining please let me know!

Waiting for my flight back to Adelaide and so far there is only one man waiting at this gate... I think if the girls put their heads together we could cure cancer on this flight... global politics may change after this flight... so much potential

Presented at @ASCS1966 earlier this week on some #Ovid work which means a lot to me as a cancer patient. 🦢 When the fates call, the white swan, abandoned, sings in the wet grass 🦢
