It was such a joy to participate in #BritCult2025 remotely and present my research on (Inter-)Textile Practices and/as Networked Feminism this morning! Thank you so much to @susannegruss.bsky.social @sarahbusch.bsky.social and the rest of the team for making this possible! #AcademicParenting
first-row seat for an inspiring talk by feminist performance icon @valieexport.bsky.social!

P.S.: Not sure if it helps my case or do the opposite, but it revolves around a portrait of Margaret Thatcher that See Red Women's Workshop used for this fantastic parody: seeredwomensworkshop.wordpress.com/tough-copy/
Londoners/UK colleagues - if anyone is around the National Portrait Gallery these days, could you please give me a shout? I have a weird research question that concerns a specific frame (!) in the NPG. Any help much appreciated!

Final panel of #ISTR2025 now with fellow feminist interventionist @ciaralynnmurphy.bsky.social's excellent and engaging paper on "'Get Your Brits Out': Performing Stereotypes of Irish Nationalism Through Subversive Aesthetics"
www.nme.com/news/music/k...
Looking forward to SiΓ’n Adiseshiah's keynote on Staging Utopian Subjects #ISTR2025

Particularly liked the irony that we could literally see the stock market crashing on account of the newest beef in the lower right corner of Kurt's screen as he was questioning what the "great" evoked in MAGA is meant to represent #ISTR2025
Kurt Taroff raises thought-provoking points in βCircuses of stasis: performing the defence of the imperial state in the US and Northern Irelandβ, juxtaposing the perfomativity and iconography of The Twelfth parades with Trump rallies (at one of which he apparently "signed a baby")
#ISTR2025
Excited to find out whether the audio will work or if my co-communications officer @irishtheatreres.bsky.social @lukelamont.bsky.social will actually sing during his paper on "Verbatim musicals in Britain during the rightward lurch", as promised #ISTR2025

Second day of #ISTR2025 is off to a fantastic start as Brian Singleton discusses ANU Productionsβ Hammam (2023), bringing it together with the context of the 2023 Dublin Riot www.abbeytheatre.ie/whats-on/ham...
Excitedly waiting for Elaine Sisson's keynote at #ISTR2025 #EndsOfEmpire not only, but also because "modernism" is mentioned in the title #OnceAModernistAlwaysAModernist

Always delighted when Elizabeth Freeman's "Time Binds: Queer Temporalities, Queer Histories" is invoked, one of my all-time favourite writings on temporalities!
