Hectic June, but glad I squeezed in UCL’s Corpus Linguistics Summer School - mostly attended in transit! A great refresher in #digitalmethods + #corpuslinguistics with real promise for #EnvironmentalHumanities + #EmpiricalEcocriticism. Thanks to Sean Wallis, Bas Aarts, Beth Malory & Guyanne Wilson!

Just wrapped two energising and special days in Bergamo with the NEST network, where we had no panels, no scripts, no endless papers, just close thinking on narrative, crisis & care. Huge thanks to my co-organisers + all involved. The first phase is done, but NEST lives on. 🔗 nestresearchnetwork.org
