Absolute pleasure to be involved in this year's @welshcrucible.bsky.social. The first two days in Cardiff were immense - so many interesting people and perspectives. Looking forward to seeing everyone again in a month.
@andfilmer.bsky.social is interested in the way performance weaves is way into our lives, why we make art, and how artists interact with performance spaces @aberuni.bsky.social #crwsiblcymru #crucible25

After @welshcrucible.bsky.social Lab 1, I feel a clearer need for geographical research with a keen eye for the social and economic. There is a mission to help to explore renewable energy generation, how it is transmitted, and the dimensions of storage and end use. We have huge potential in Wales.

Very pleased to be part of the Welsh Crucible group of 30 people. Some highly varied research interests. We have tried out some interesting techniques and learned a lot about how to present our interests and what we can offer. Tomorrow we shape things a bit more #crucible25 #crwsiblcymru
And we're off! Prof Jon Gillard is welcoming our newest Cruciblees to Cardiff and the Crucible family #crucible25 #crwsiblcymru
