Brilliant day with the @field_wt team, our first in person meeting since Feb 20. Talked about why endemic livestock diseases persist, our artists in residence, and locating animals in oral histories. Added bonus of dropping in on @francesca_lanz's great seminar on mind museums.

On the FIELD project website, the project team have created stories about their work.

This one explores the Town Moor, and local people's memories of the cows that graze there: from seeing them up close, to watching them hear music.

It's a lovely read!

When was the last time you saw a cow? Not in a photo. Not on Minecraft. A real mooing cow.

For many people in Newcastle, the answer is every day, because there's literally 1,000 acres of common land in the city centre, where cattle have grazed since the 12th century.
