@alastairmci @BirlinnBooks @bookscot This looks excellent - thank you!

@AlanWatsonFeat1 @IridiumShift It is a wonderful video, Alan!

@MadsDavies @BenDowell I remember reading Anselm's argument and simultaneously holding it as the most wonderful argument, and it slipping its meaning beyond me. It somehow held me and continues to hold me in the midst of that simultaniety. Drives me to prayer & meditation as he would want.

@j_amesmarriott That's a beautiful piece of writing. Dickens is good to speak out loud also, I could hear it being spoken as I read.

@MadsDavies Love this series and Melvyn Bragg is superb in drawing what matters out of the guests. What a loss.

@malcolmguite @EmperorDeSantis I read Tolkien in my teens in the 70s/early 80s with Mike Oldfield Hergest Ridge, Ommadawn playing in background - inextricably linked now

[derrick watson @dlwespresso]

@ModernChurchUK @ChurchTimes This is very helpful. I remember at college reading Anselm - his commitment to writing theology as an act of prayer has had a lasting impact on me; the essay expands and explores that old commitment beautifully. Thank you.

@bellacaledonia This is a great post - thank you.

@AimeTim Oh, that's an expensive one, but looks excellent!

@artinsociety Brilliant painting - and as someone in south side Glasgow, working not far from the scene of his 'Tennis Party' I would also hold him as a Glasgow Boy, growing up in the south side and going to GSofA.

@RoryOlcayto @MurphyNiallGLA @GlasgowHeritage I remember a wee Russian Contructivist phase I had with a bookshop design along the Kelvin in Gibson Street, which could work quite nicely with Stirling's drawing ethos

[derrick watson @dlwespresso]

@RoryOlcayto @MurphyNiallGLA @GlasgowHeritage Aye, Derrida was feeding into things by mid-80s, which I found very helpful later when I turned to Deleuze within theological/philosophical study in doctoral days later

[derrick watson @dlwespresso]

@RoryOlcayto @MurphyNiallGLA @GlasgowHeritage yes, the Stirling drawing style resonated across the student body in the 80s

@SGHETorg @NL_Heritage @ProfileBooks @C20Society A short note with images & video of the installation #namingfragments on Glencairn Tower and the talk on it last Thursday at the Heritage Centre is available at https://t.co/MVRlDVu2GL

I know twitter is no longer the place that I found so engaging and connecting through doctoral studies but I thought I'd post this as a nod to what was, after sharing through the week on an early project.

Details of the project #imaginingcommonties which took place in Cathcart, 2015, developing further the practice of textile poietics, are available at https://t.co/aDQN9bLzgp
