colours of Little India #IAMCR2025 Singapore 🇸🇬

I’m presenting ‘Beauty queens, dancers and maidens: Gender and energy in Australia’, developed with Belinda Smaill, on Thursday afternoon #IAMCR2025

heading to #IAMCR2025 and looking forward to catching up with colleagues 😊 ✈️

This AGL 1979 TV ad featuring contemporary dance led Belinda Smaill and I to investigate the promotion of ‘natural gas’ and the ways media & promotional industries shape understandings of energy.

I planned to cook all the recipes, but devilled jellied tongue in port, stewed kidneys with wine sauce and sherried grapefruit mould or jellied tomato bullion (both made with gelatine) aren’t really my thing (other recipes have better stood the test of time eg pot roasts, wine sauces)

I was visiting Fellow at the very supportive @anuausi.bsky.social in a freezing but beautiful Canberra winter ❄️ and worked in the National Archives and National Library of Australia

love it that people are sharing pet pics so here’s mine 🐕

my weekend reading is sorted 🤩 can’t wait to read your new book on the Australian Women’s Weekly & Oz food culture @clemloz.bsky.social
