Had a banger of an event, as the Brits say, for Silence – Catastrophe – Crisis. All the tech functioned and everyone was able to present their awesome scholarship. Many thanks to all our presenters and sponsors. We can't wait to work with you again soon! 🦾

“Silence can be a plan
rigorously executed
the blueprint to a life
It is a presence
it has a history a form
Do not confuse it
with any kind of absence”
- from “Cartographies of Silence” by Adrienne Rich
