Meanwhile my 11yo son’s friends are already actively choosing their pronouns, do the people writing the guidance even talk to children?

not directly related, but I once noticed that the inside of the of the seal peeled off supermarket milk smelt exactly the same as a fresh circuit board 😱

Thanks to Michaela Büsse and Johanna Mehl for all their work organising a brilliant day of presentations, and to Theo Stanley, discussions with whom have informed much of my thinking on forests and carbon.

I discuss the applications of remote sensing to methane emissions monitoring and global biomass mapping, thinking about how these complimentary imaging techniques raise the potential of a regime of carbon governance, specualting how this might be used in climate justice campaigns.

Thanks also to Siobhan Angus whose invitation to contribute to a journal stream on rare earths led to me putting this video together. And to Arjan Dijkstra for the amazing access to his Spectral Geology lab, which was central to the realisation of this work.

So I’ve decided to maintain something akin to Open Access to recent work, for as long as server space remains viable. I am thankful to Ben Byrne of Avantwhatever, whose initiative made me consider this option & whose peer tube will accommodate my work on the most sustainable server space available.

I have long been frustrated by the lack of availability of moving image artworks. Of course, in many cases this protects the artist’s capacity to earn money from screenings and exhibitions of their work, in my case where the work is supported by my academic salary, this model seems irrelevant.
