Great to be at #Interspeech2026, catching up with colleagues, meeting new people, and hearing lots of interesting work! A couple of highlights: Steven Bird’s plenary and the introduction to Indigenous Voices Day. Thanks to @chloediskinh.bsky.social for capturing these moments!

Next Tuesday 2nd April I'll be giving a talk on language attitudes to Australian English @marcsinstitute.bsky.social Research Meeting. I'll be discussing how Australia's increasingly diverse population deals with the concept of an accent being linked to a national identity.
