Looking forward to joining The Media Show on @BBCRadio4 in 30 minutes to talk crisis actors and conspiracy theories.
The subject is the war on Gaza but I’m there to talk the reactionary digital politics angle, maybe a bit about the loss of meaning & the crisis of representation
First outing for first findings of project @TimMarkham and I are working on - we study the many democratic functions of news, using UK and German 'elite' news websites during Covid as a case study.
Many thanks to Dina Matar from @SOAS for being a great chair!

Just got my two important to-reads for my upcoming project.
One is @RobKitchin’s Digital Timescapes - exploring how digital technology reshapes temporality and society; the other one is @timmarkham’s digital life - understanding digital experience through a phenomenological lens
The book Theorising Media & Conflict is now available in paperback!

FYI just out: my review of @TimMarkham's book Digital Life (with @politybooks), where he underscores the triviality, awesomeness, and potential of living our lives in media, seeing opportunities for collective and improvisational sense-making everywhere: https://t.co/zvrn7a9qtw
This piece attempts to connect Margaret Hillenbrand's work on public secrecy in China (+her recent writing on precarity) with @TimMarkham's 'Digital Life,' trying to parse ways in which people cope with being thrown into an internet ordered around secrets https://t.co/hs51PwvBxK
After 4.5 years (including a *pandemic*), today I defended my PhD @MediaLSE. It was a wonderful experience, for which I am extremely grateful to my generous examiners @kfvanes and @TimMarkham, and for my amazing supervisors @couldrynick and @EllenHel 🎉🥂 #PhDone#phdlife
My graduate school @BirkbeckFMACS moving from 38th to 4th in REF results and demonstrating what I already know -- that the research teaching abd learning environment (@joel_mckim@rodgers_scott@TimMarkham) is excellent.
