My social media presence on Twitter is almost non-existent. Luckily, ever since I joined the @LinacreCollege JRF community, I often get captured in pictures while attending inspiring events with my fellows Fellows! Here is one from a last night!.

Quick perspective on how long Ancient Egyptian history was: Cleopatra lived closer to the iPhone than to the Great Pyramid of Giza.

What a challenging (read exhausting) year! But in the end, we managed to pull everything together. This is the outcome I had the most fun producing, presented at the Festival of Science of Sorbonne...

Thousands of sea snails had to be sacrificed to dye the garments of the aristocrats. That’s why this pigment was (and is) so expensive. Animalists would be mad at Phoenicians!.

I had a blast as a panelist of this colourful event! If you are a curious mind, have a look at how we address the question “Do we all see colour the same” from 3 very different angles!. The world is complex. Multidisciplinarity is a must.

Loved hosting this livestream with @OxfordUNIQ as part of #UNIQ2021 - 'do we see colour the same?' . Learn how the hexadecimal system works, how our perception of colours has changed throughout history, and some fantastic facts about animals - enjoy :).

I am an academic. I read, research, analyse, think and write. I love material culture and investigating our past to understand more about our present. But above all, I love being an inspiration for other people, giving them that push they might be looking for. Feeling fulfilled.

I love culture. The culture preserved in museums, and the culture you can breathe in the street surrounded by your community, like Swing. Happier times in this pic, when I could dance with, touch and hug other people without restrictions. Hopefully, soon again. #frankiemonth
