Belated conference shenanigans: drinks do at Durham U with @AmandaDoviak, space Cuthbert & trips to the Cathedral and Jarrow. #IIAC9 #medievaltwitter
Artist Thomas Keyes also got pigments from his incredible work analysed! #IIAC9
We were then treated to an amazing workshop with Prof Richard Gameson (Durham University) and Prof Andy Beeby (Durham University) in @PalaceGreenLib. Talking pigments ๐จ! #IIAC9
I first visited Durham in 2017 (pic 1) to examine St Cuthbert's coffin for my BA dissertation. Felt wonderful to come full circle, back to Durham, and present some of that research at the 9th International Insular Art Conference #IIAC9
Donncha MacGabhann at work with his catalogue of Kells initials. #IIAC9
Pleasure to contribute a paper and participate virtually in #IIAC9 Thanks to @DavidPetts1 @weefiddler @HLStn and their whole team for a great Insular Art conference!
I unceremoniously returned to Twitter for #IIAC9 but itโs been suggested that I neglected to tell the twittersphere I have a new job: Lecturer of Early Medieval Archaeology @CCCUarchaeology. So although I actually left @durham_history a year ago this feels like a more final exit.
"The decision how to show text is always a creative decision, even if only to follow convention." @CatrinH42 on the interaction between manuscript culture and runes! #IIAC9 #medievaltwitter #runes #epigraphy
I always love hearing Jiลรญ Vnouฤek speak about manuscripts. You learn not only about detailed codicology but also a return of the animal to the skin and pages that make up the book. Seeing a perimortem bruise appear beneath medieval text is fascinating as always! #iiac9
Octopus men, hair antlers, and elvish figures from the amazing Turin Gospels. And fish people from Kells. #IIAC9 #medievaltwitter
Bernard Meehan proving what new pictures, even iPhone pictures, can do to help us understand manuscript images and recovering fire damage and the distortion of age. #iiac9
It is amazing to me how much more there is to know about an image Iโve seen for decades! Thank you for your close reading of the St Chadโs images Heather Pulliam! #IIAC9
The second showing of the Game of the Gospels at #IIAC9 this morning! Aways a fun one! (Cambridge, Corpus Christi College MS 122. f5v) We heard about it in the context of gaming pieces yesterday from Kate Forsyth and today Dominique Barbaret-Massin discuses the lozenge symbol.
Tantalizing show and tell with Stephen Walker of @WalkersCeltic #IIAC9 #medievaltwitter #metalsmithing
Getting groovy ๐บwith @3Dgroovanstones as we learn about how groove analysis can illumine the practices of multiple carvers or, as Kasten argues, delineate and make visible familial connections on recumbents of similar form.#IIAC9
Now into our session on Digital Approaches. First up: Dr. Megan Kasten (@UofGArchaeo) on the incredibly impressive Govan assemblage @GovanStones and her equally impressive and informative 3D (& 2.5D) models. #IIAC9
Day 2 of the 9th International Insular Art Conference ๐ทI'm sitting in our Digital Approaches session this afternoon with our first paper, Detangling Decoration, presented by @3Dgroovanstones from @UofGArchaeo. #IIAC9
"I think we've reached the practical limits of Zoom" - @DavidPetts1
Congrats to everyone involved in running a wildly complicated hybrid international conference in 2022. Those of us who couldn't make it in person so truly appreciate it #IIAC9
