For decades they’ve had it easy - now they’re just waiting to retire. @AaronBastani on why elites are on autopilot. https://t.co/J2Yjgh6Znh

Despite two lost decades, an indifferent political and media elite still offers nothing but inertia. Aaron Bastani went to an M&S cafe and discovered why.

Mary Taylor (1817-93) knew that the outdoors could show women a better feminist world. She was Charlotte Brontë's friend & thought women should earn their own living: at 28, she set up a business in New Zealand. In 1874 she introduced a group of younger women to mountaineering.

With all the talk of 'Small Boats' it seems an appropriate time to re-up this thread. There was a time when the Home Office and Home Secretary quietly worked WITH the Foreign Office and Smallbones to provide a legal route for refugees, despite hostile politics and press.
Right. A thread on another ordinary person who did extraordinary things. This is Robert Smallbones, career civil servant and diplomat, and his wife Inga. Between November 1938 and the outbreak of WW2, they helped OVER FORTY THOUSAND Jews escape the Nazis and get to Britain. /1

Thanks for this Martin. Pleased to see and arts org addressing the exploitative treatment of artists
I wrote about the work we've been doing to cut down on the amount of unpaid labour in arts application processes. There's a little calculator and everything, so you can work out just how much of everyone's time you're taking up with preparing proposals.

Towards a future #neuroreality with #immersivetech. Maybe time to collapse the idea of neurodiversity? @AmeliaKallman @BOMlab #openworlds #immersivearts

The completely fabulous artist @mirabelle_jones captivated us at #OpenWorlds #ImmersiveArtsBootcamp with tales of art at the junction of art/tech & humanity, inc. work with @MeowWolf, wearable tech to deter street harassment & illuminated sculptures of books that read the viewer.

Photos alone cannot impart the immensity of the speaker array @Dvka_music & Lucie Štěpánková bought to the basement studio. The visceral experience of immersive sound is perfect to begin our journey w/ the haunting 'A thousand feet under' by their collaborative project, Vādin.
