🎥 📚 I'm making a short film composed of lots of 20-second clips of different people reading the same line of text: a series of brief instalments. If you would like to be involved - it will be fun, and maybe interesting, and easy (you film on a phone) - please DM me (and/or repost). Thank you!

A sneak preview of the brilliant line up in a special issue of Critical Quarterly on *PAPER AND POETRY: INTERVENTIONS IN THEORY AND PRACTICE* that I co-edited with Orietta Da Rold!

I wrote about John Taylor and ethnographies of paper. It's out online today, prior to publication in *Critical Quarterly*. Thanks to @georginaemw.bsky.social and co for kicking off this train of thought with a wonderful conference, and giving it a home. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Thanks to our panellists and engaged audience for a wonderful discussion on critical writing, creative writing, close reading, and the jutting elbows of proximate essayists @univeng.bsky.social

Brilliant time this afternoon at the Shared Futures conference, talking on the 'Work of Writing' roundtable with @georginaemw.bsky.social, Ben Card, Joe Moshenska, and Orlando Reade. Lovely to see @veldaelliott.bsky.social in the audience too! I grasped the nettle & talked about generative AI...

Screenshot of abstract: "Authentic Intelligence: Notes on generative AI, recognition, and the creative/critical classroom. I don't really want to talk about generative AI, but feel I need to. For all the talk of its utility and/or inevitability, I can't help but see generative AI's recent proliferation as a grotesque threat to the intellectual and transformative potential of the work of writing. So I want to use my time to consider some pedagogical strategies by which teachers might encourage student appreciation and embrace of 'Authentic Intelligence', rather than the artificial kind. I won't be focusing on strategies for detection, which I don’t think should be part of our job as educators. Rather I'll be using my position as a teacher of both English Literature and Creative Writing to reflect on how AI seems to be posing a threat – or not – in both kinds of classroom, and in what I think one might possibly learn from the other."

Just out/appena uscita! JEMS 14 (OA from Firenze UP), with 12 terrific articles on "The Politics of Book History--Then and Now". A great pleasure to edit this issue with @georginaemw.bsky.social, a brilliant collaborator (whose book, Paper and the Making of Early Modern Literature, is out soon!)
