An incredible week at @memstudiesassoc.bsky.social Conference in Prague with @klarakosova.bsky.social 🤍 #MSAPrague2025 @c4dhi.bsky.social

I had a wonderful time presenting at the @memstudiesassoc.bsky.social conference at Charles University (Prague). The conference brought together an inspiring range of methods and frameworks for researching memory. I'm grateful for the wonderful people I met and the new connections formed.

We had the most amazing time screening 'An Unusual Period of Unspecified Length' at the @memstudiesassoc.bsky.social conference in Prague last week! What a wonderful opportunity to talk to fascinating colleagues from all over the world about preserving and letting go of memory. #MSAPrague2025

1st day back from my conference Eurotrip - @imc-leeds.bsky.social (where we've plotted forthcoming sessions w/ Medieval Animal Data-Network) and @memstudiesassoc.bsky.social in Prague (where I've tried out medieval studies from the memory perspective). Now let's catch up on this pile of emails
