Looking forward to getting stuck into this over the Easter break! We need a new political imaginary more than ever! Hoping Leela Gandhi’s politics of friendship will help focus my thoughts for some new trajectories that I am working on.

We have started work on our allotment! Feels really good to dig the land and start to grow/nurture things. This is about regenerative practice and quiet activism.

As we reach the end of another week, I wanted to briefly reflect on two highly interesting events that I attended this week. Collaboration and connection seems to be in the ether!

Some great moments this week. A brilliant online discussion led by Sophie Hope on sharing power with some fascinating discussion on #Friendship.

Then a deep dive into #Midjourney #AI experimental workshop by Martine Neang ‘Home, Nowhere and Everywhere’.

When a book just hits right for your #research and your world view! Highly recommend Matt Hern and Am Johal’s book on the potential of friendship for thinking about a future that is, currently, very unthinkable!

Great to get a rare night off last week to see Ed Gamble at the Leeds Grand Theatre.
