If you're casting about for amusement in London on the evening of Friday 20 November, I'm giving a talk at KCL on mushrooms and social reproduction. They've got a bit of security at the building, so if you're not at KCL but would like to go, contact aaron.rosenberg at kcl dot ac dot uk

Teal green event poster with a close-up image of pink oyster mushrooms. Text reads:

Natalia Cecire, University of Sussex. Plasticities. Friday Nov 20 2026, Bush House SE 4.16, 5-6:30 pm. King's College London Department of English Environmental Humanities.

"Plasticities," the title of the talk, is in the Barbie typeface.

Cover reveal! The keywords I sent the press were “historical,” “natural,” and “multimedia” and I’d say they nailed it. Featuring my (book’s) main man Humphry Repton on the left there. Coming from Yale University Press this fall.

Image of a book cover with the title The Book of Improvement, subtitle Media Landscapes in the Global Enlightenment, and author Rachael King. The cover features a tree in the center with two men with surveying equipment to the left of the trunk and two men reclining under an umbrella to the right of the trunk. There are a river and rolling hills in the background.

Spent a few hours with this old friend last night, thinking especially with Jameson’s analysis of how *models* come & go, always becoming recognizable as metaphors once saturated by history, & the allure of the language model is it might escape such contingency & prove foundational. But it doesn’t.
