@ElanaGomel This is something I know #CICW2020 panellist @the_blochian is also interested in! Cf https://t.co/m8RvijvKsh
Thanks very much to all our fantastic speakers and attendees for stimulating papers and discussions! It's been a great first BACLS virtual conference. #CICW2020
@BACLS_official Such a great online conference with so many interesting papers & discussions. I've loved being a delegate. As someone unable to travel even in non-Corvid19 times it's been a wonderful opportunity. Thank you to all speakers, panel chairs & organisers. #CICW2020
Connection without / in spite of empathy is an important issue for contemporary literature (& how literature 'creates empathy' has been a big topic today). It'd also a big discussion in Monster Studies, where we spend lots of time considering how we represent the Other. #CICW2020
In the context of discussions of empathy + power in the closing panel of the #CICW2020 virtual conference, I've reminded of what @ElanaGomel says elsewhereโhow ultimately empathy is an inadequate tool for social justice. How do we care for people with whom we cannot empathise?
Great Q and A happening now - Jenn Ashworth, Jo Baker, Vahni Capildeo and Maggie Gee discussing how they see crisis as writers in the contemporary moment. Jenn Ashworth notes her interest in the crises in her characters' heads. I think we might all relate to that.. #CICW2020
Excited about the writers' Q+A session, especially to hear from my fellow dystopist @maggiegeewriter! @BACLS_official #CICW2020
Wrapping up today's really exciting @BACLS_official virtual conference with Jenn Ashworth, Jo Baker, Vahni Capildeo, and Maggie Gee. How brilliant is that?! #CICW2020
Really looking forward to this writers' Q&A #CICW2020
Brilliant to have Maggie Gee, Jo Baker & Jen Ashworth at @BACLS_official virtual conference - the most exciting part of contemporary literature is being able to ask the authors! #CICW2020
Fantastic panels and insightful discussions at BACLS "Crisis in Contemporary Writing" #CICW2020 @BACLS_official
Panel 5 at BACLS "Crisis in Contemporary Writing" online conference: "Technology and Other Ecologies." Speakers from all over the world - apologies to speakers in Australia having to present in the small hours! #CICW2020
@ProfKatyShaw @BACLS_official Hah! Back when my paper was a video presentation (no time to finish this alas) it included a zombie version of this gif #CICW2020
Great to chair a special panel on space, displacement & dispossession in the first ever @BACLS_official virtual conference - fascinating discussion on supermarkets, domestic interiors & the politics of a post-Covid world! ๐ #CICW2020
Fascinating morning and afternoon listening to the research and discussions on crisis in contemporary writing at #CICW2020 @BACLS_official! Feeling super inspired ๐๐

Reflecting on disrupted temporality as I try and keep up with the lightening talks over lunch at @BACLS_official conference! So many intersecting ideas! #CICW2020
Another great discussion. Really appreciated listening to @sadiseshiah's thoughts on the intersections of crisis and ageing, and the implied age-related values of defining the "contemporary" #CICW2020
We're racing through - so much to think about. Now Panel 3: "Contemporary Culture and Public Discourse in Crisis." Looks good! #CICW2020
