Elon has un-metamodernized Twitter. He killed the cute blue bird, killed the cute brand name, and literally replaced it with (postmodern) (Gen) X. Now he threatens to put us in permanent dark mode.
Finally listened to this brilliant summary / intro to cultural #metamodernism between @spoonybard_ and @GregDember throughout an apartment clean and just blown away by the pair’s ability to provide insight and examples so clearly and accessibly…
We made this! Gonna hang this here for a while to remind me how good it was 😊
(Documentation will be available in due course, watch this space)
#MetamodernCircus
Discussion of Intimacy and Distance in a post-covid world through the performance example of @UGuests #LoveLettersAtHome.
'We shared that moment together'. Characterised in scholarship as 'together-apartness'

@Ben_Broadribb@miserchristmas @UGuests Hi Ben, if you'd like to drop us a DM with your email we can keep you in the loop for when our documentation of the day is available!
I had a great day at the #MetamodernCircus symposium Cardiff today @NoFitState @CircusDiaries - such an eclectic mix of thinkers and artists and practitioners. Can’t quite stop thinking about audiences, falling, and juggling (for) plants. Thanks to @BustingFree@ThomHamer et al!
It's been a great day! Watch this space for our documentation projects coming soon! Thanks to the @SWWDTP, @WalesDT & @CardiffDA for the funding to make this possible 💕
And thanks to all our attendees & contributors for also making it possible to extend & stretch our thoughts!
We loved having you! Fascinating performance and loved getting inspired about new angles of thinking about metamodern performance and (self) consciousness!
(And those high-heeled roller boots - cowabunga!)
🚂 just leaving the @MetamodernF in Cardiff & wow I had such a wonderful time performing. 100% going to keep performing Highway to Infinity I just rly enjoyed hearing what/how ppl reflected after seeing it, there’s a lot more I want to say with this piece. Thanks for having me 😌
So glad to have @Ben_Broadribb’s brilliant thinking re: Zoom and metamodern ‘together-apartness’ (his term) to help describe my experience with @UGuests’ Zoom-transposed Love Letters At Home during the pandemic
Too many exciting thoughts to tweet during our discussion panel! Touching on international difference, cultural shifts, and aspirations! #MetamodernCircus
Short films both touch on different elements of circus embodiment... of fear and exhilaration in performance and reception @HobbitStunts, and then on genealogical knowledge transfer @PeteYelding
#MetamodernCircus
Carrying a thought through Valentina Solari's Plant Juggling workshop to @SymoneArtist's Work In Progress: the circus body as a cyborg body (citing Dana Dugan @love2disobey, I think!), intertwined with external entity partners, be they physical or digital...
#MetamodernCircus
Partnered up with a fellow being during the plant-juggling workshop. How can we relate to the non-human world through a metamodern lens? #metamoderncircus
