Hi all! I've just migrated to this server (from mastodon.online which seemed to slow RIGHT down), so a new #introduction....

I'm a #geography lecturer at Royal Holloway and practising #christianarchist. I teach and write about #cities #activism #capitalism #anarchism #mutualaid #brutalism #filmstudies #psychogeography #creativity #culturalstudies and quite a bit more.

Interested in #scifi #drums #guitars #architecture #dogs #everton #aldershotfc and others bits and bobs...

#introduction time:
i'm an artist and researcher who works in #geohumanities #environmentalhumanities #politicalecology and #geography

I'm also interested in #feministscienccefiction #punk #nature #fiberart #textileart and #soundart and other nerdy stuff

i live on #lekwungenterritory and am currently an associate fellow at #uvic in Victoria, BC, and a Green Transitions Fellow at #UiS in Stavanger, Norway through the Greenhouse centre for environmental humanities

NO to #Bristol #airport expansion.

This airport expansion contradicts the Climate Change Act, The Paris Agreement and the Government’s commitment to be carbon neutral by 2050.

Various actions this weekend. https://bristolairportactionnetwork.wordpress.com/post-inquiry-action/

The Center for Advanced Studies of the University of Rijeka is issuing a call for fellows https://cas.uniri.hr/fellowship-call-for-proposals-for-interdisciplinary-research-residencies-on-the-end-of-violence/ The fellowships are aimed at ECRs who hold a PhD and artists. This call’s topic is: “new critical dialogue on the End of Violence from various disciplinary perspectives.” CAS-SEE is a great chaotic place, especially if you’re just finishing your PhD and need a few months of breathing time.

Incredible resource for finding accounts in #academia on several different topics (#Geography, #Sociology, #PolSci etc)

#Introduction
I'm a cultural geographer working on a book for the RGS-IBG book series on the aesthetics of nonauthoritarian authority. I also lead a participatory action research project exploring gender, the body, and cultures of care in the favelas of RIo de Janeiro. I have broad interests in philosophy of geography, new materialisms and creative geographies.

@hamishkallin Yes I am also wondering if I should do the same, considering .scholar. Do you know where I can find a good list of instances to choose the one that is right for me? And where did you find the information about the procedure to follow to avoid mishaps for those of us a bit less tech-savvy?
