#cclasses alpha test with UC Irvine
I wrote a little while back about working with Liz Greebhan at UC Irvine to deliver a #phonar class and this was of course a challenge not only for her negotiating a new way of teaching her class, but for me to communicate how Jonathan and I have done it before using available technologies and…
#phonar at UC Irvine
It’s been a crazy couple of weeks and I am feeling super excited about how Phonar and Phonar Nation are moving forward. Phonar always used to thrive in the autumn (or the fall for any American readers) when the undergraduate class would run, but for the first time it was unhitched from this norm… Jonathan…
Workshop for Films to Make you Feel Good
In the midst of working with researchers and project leads pioneering with innovations in pedagogy, I find myself often forgetting my background in the creative arts. As part of my role as Projects and Community Assistant, I manage students and graduates who work ad-hoc on projects in different capacities; some of these are media production…

Take a Selfie!
Last week saw two campaigns I support have their nights of fame. On Wednesday I was supporting the Get Your Belly Out campaign for a Twitter Takeover to raise awareness for Crohn’s and Ulcerative Colitis UK. Inflametary Bowel Disease carries a huge stigma because of its ‘invisible’ nature; many bellies in the community are facing a…
#FilmandFilms: The Cinema Paradigm Shift
https://youtu.be/TdknhQqH43w “a projectionist has become an overhead the cinema no longer needs” [soundcloud url=”https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/214101106″ params=”color=ff5500&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false” width=”100%” height=”166″ iframe=”true” /] An audio response to Jonny’s first point about the paradigm shift.

Santander Photo Exhibition, 2 years on
It’s been two years since the #Picbod class took flight opened the first Santander Photo Festival. I have had chance to reflect on this collaboration recently and think about how learning communities are extremely powerful and can truly build friendships. I still speak to Charo often about possible collaborations and projects, albeit it is very…
