I'm so:::::: looking forward to the **18th** year of #EMCA @darg-sessions.bsky.social @lborouniversity.bsky.social having made a tragic diary error last year and missing it.
Here's the registration link and terrific programme:
darg.lboro.ac.uk/event/ca-day...
It's now a global, friendly get-together of like-minded interaction analysts.
People fly or dial in from all over the world.
Still great fun.

Emotions studied as they’re done in interaction - displayed, taken up, used.

Following on from my earlier thread about claims of “bias” in universities (link below 👇), I was struck by James Marriott’s column in today’s Times. It’s full of anecdote & caricature. The real story of UK universities is structural, financial, and political. 🧵
