Just back from 10th Lapita conference in Fiji. The end of conf day trip to Nakabuta village to see the pottery making was a highlight

Sorry for the cross-twitter post, but I'm really happy that my first archaeology paper is out. It describes the pottery of the Agarabi of the Eastern Highlands of PNG. With Chris Ballard's beautiful photographs. Free access for 50 days https://authors.elsevier.com/a/1gF6y-JVbvBdf
With a prototype VR experience https://uviras-pot.vercel.app (assemble the vessel!)

#introduction I study the pottery of the Pacific at ANU (in Canberra Australia). I'm working on database of petrography. As a side project there's a VR gallery of some of the different petrographic types of the Pacific https://virtual-petrography.vercel.app

Finished my PhD coursework component. I'm making VR prototypes to communicate archaeological methods/research on Pacific potteries. http://png-vessels.vercel.app (needs a Quest to move the pots)
