I find myself re-elected to Vice President of the Law, Literature and the Humanities Association of Australasia after one of the least controversial AGMs in recent memory. I’ve been a part of this Association since 2004. It’s such a good network of people, research, and scholarship. #llhaa #LawAndLiterature #lawandhumanities #lawandaesthetics

Please meet the physical copy of my article on "norm-knitting" and the master-piece of my Grandma that inspired this article. She found it an interesting challenge to combine so many different kinds of wool in an asymmetrical pattern. #change #internationallaw #legaltheory #lawandhumanities #law #humanrights #environment #knitting

What has #knitting to do with legal change? Everything! My article in the LJIL uses the example of #HumanRights concerned with the #environment in order to explore how thinking in terms of #knitting helps to understand the ways in which international norms #change #internationallaw #legaltheory #lawandhumanities #law https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/leiden-journal-of-international-law/article/conceptualizing-legal-change-as-normknitting-through-the-example-of-the-environmental-human-right/B71D455D6CC0C09AC0277B29CC4639F0

Hit for six: it’s great to place my brand new textbook ‘A Historical Introduction to English Law: Genesis of the Common Law’ (https://www.cambridge.org/gb/academic/subjects/law/legal-history/historical-introduction-english-law-genesis-common-law?format=PB) with my other five solo authored books.

There’s more to come. Next, it’s time for a rethink…

!! V. excited to have won a City of Melbourne arts grant to convert my book, Love and Reparation, into a lecture-performance. I am incredibly grateful at the chance to bring the artistic and scholarly elements of this work together, and to share it with a new set of audiences 🥳 #crits #lawacademics #lawandhumanities @crits

A few weeks ago, I had the wonderful opportunity of talking about the art of the conference presentation for the Academic Skills Circle led by IILAH Uni Melbourne, the UNSW Critique Network, and the La Trobe Law and Humanities Network. I spoke about ways in which we might consider the presentation as a unique genre which offers us different ways of generating connection and translating our work.

The talk is available as a podcast here:

Amplifying @PanuMinkkinen’s much needed initiative to gather crit sociolegal/ law and humanities folks here: Follow the group @crits to get all toots across different instances mentioning the group. Similarly you can send toots to all the crits on the list by adding the group as if you were mentioning someone’s account. It’ll then be sent to all followers of the group.

#introduction time: I’m a final year doctoral researcher at the Melbourne Law School, working at the intersections of #lawandhumanities.

My current project brings my work as an activist lawyer in conversation with my experience as a theatre practitioner. I explore the jurisprudential learnings offered by creative practices of dissent against the colonial sodomy law in India.

I’m also interested in the conduct of legal pedagogy, exploring how we might bring queer-feminist-anti racist perspectives to bear on core law subjects.

My first book, Love and Reparation, was published by Seagull Books and distributed by University of Chicago Press in 2021. It draws upon court transcripts, affidavits (real and imagined), archival research, and personal memoir to re-stage the Section 377 litigation in India.

I'm also a commissioning editor over at the Critical Legal Thinking blog. Feel free to pitch me your ideas!

Only watching #Andor now but wow that Episode 3 - so much going about policing, and order & the havoc & harm within communities under totalitarian regimes & the price of rebellion. So good!
