I finish at Macquarie Uni April 9. Not retiring from my projects. Not planned. Fast cascading events since workplace change was announced 4 weeks ago. Wrung out. Regrouping. My sweat baked into uni brickwork since 1992. Time to skip the ivory towers; rip it up and start again.

I indulged in three amazing online talks on Wednesday: Serafina Cuomo on distributed cognition in ancient numeracy, Victoria Wohl on the pre-Socratic philosopher Empedocles, and a powerful virtual tour of Franco's Valley of the Fallen by Marije Hristova & Paco Ferrandiz.
