I'm so happy that The Conversation Insights Team published my in-depth article regarding my research with #hibakusha #survivors of #Hiroshima. Thank you!

I was honoured to speak about my research at a symposium hosted by The University of Westminster on the Legacies of War in Japan alongside a third generation hibakusha. Here is a podcast with selected highlights www.youtube.com/watch?v=QvGH...

My article is featured on the cover of the new issue of The Irenaut, out now: theirenaut.com/winter-issue...

Fascinating talk w. Michael Rosen and Philip Seargeant about place names which so often provide a clue to the past. Loved that 'gate' has two different meanings; the scary thing is that when things are renamed, history can be forgotten - 'Mount Pleasant' and even 'Sellafield' are good examples

@philipseargeant.bsky.social, author of The Future of Language, provides a brief history of the future of human communication bit.ly/4merPmK

open.spotify.com/episode/0LYM... Loved this panel discussion on Free Speech and Literature. Key takeaways: online selves r fictions; SM comms are ltd by major corps; all arts are affected by 'lets not cause offence' culture & polarisation; a move twds 'equity of expression' as a more rounded term.

I loved this discussion about freespeech and artificial intelligence with @philipseargeant.bsky.social and Julia Bell. Well worth a listen: key takeaway the book is enduring, it allows space for imagination and dreaming; AI cannot trump human minds #freespeech #creativewiring #artificialintelligence

I haven't seen Giant yet (am going in May) but this discussion with playwright Mark Rosenblatt is excellent, talking about (among other things) how and if Roald Dahl's antisemitism colours his own reading of the books.
