How did four days of summer school pass quite so quickly.

Spent the morning delivering a lecture entitled 'Machining the archive' to the Digital Humanities @ Oxford Summer School, and it's always the questions that I enjoy.

On a bus into Oxford for a pre-Summer School drink with the other convenors of the Digital Humanities @ Oxford Summer School. Hard to believe a year has gone by since the last; nerves and excitement at the one coming …

@voltronic I do enjoy this one, it's so very effective a pairing of words and music.

In a few weeks' time, I'll be leading the 'When archives become digital' strand at the Digital Humanities @Oxford Summer School.

It's a great chance to meet people working on archives all over the world using digital methods, to share knowledge, and to learn about the processes and forces behind the digitalised archive.

Come, join us at Keble College for a fantastic week: 3-7 July , . Register by Thursday: t.co/VdOeKqxaTV

I’m looking forward to a workshop with Ethan Kleinberg, next week, exploring Archive Fever in the digital age.

It’s a rare thing to have the chance to discuss and think about these things in such illustrious company.

I have written a piece named 'Esgyn Soar' for a concert tomorrow afternoon.
Having enjoyed having the opportunity to write it for James McVinnie & the organ of Theatr Soar, through Tŷ Cerdd's CoDi programme, I'm really looking forward to hearing it (& all of the other pieces) in the flesh.
The concert begins at 3pm in Theatr Soar, Merthyr Tydfil. Here's a link to the ticketing page: tickettailor.com/events/canolf

Well, I shall join CounterSocialites with this: unusually for sharing, an iPhone shot, but a pretty evening in Blenheim Park.

@Catzly That sort of tallies with initial expectations - a lot of academics have moved over to Mastodon, but I was curious about other options.

@rpardee I thought photography might have the widest following!

@Jeber Now, that’s an enjoyable image! Maybe a particularly spiky one, to account for the ‘Counter.’
