A @UniKent PhD student, Joseph Chapman, has written an excellent blog post about my @PhysicsNews talk on 'Music and Space' at Kent Physics Centre on 21 January, hosted by Sam Carr and @ManuelMarque: research.kent.ac.uk/kent-phy… @SurreyDMM @UniofSurrey @UniofSurreyCPE @UniKentPhysics

Thank you @Dr_Chris_Wiley for a great evening!

Remember this? Disney understood 70 years ago what driving (& bad urban and suburban design creating car dependancy) can do to us. “Motor Mania” from 1950. Are you a Mr. Walker or a Mr. Wheeler? #CarDependency #RoadRage HT @LiorSteinberg

I’ve seen a lot of the Toronto running community, but this guy wins.

So, I've just spent a bit of time looking into the debate on IHT and farming. I... got a shock. First, a note: I have a friend who runs a family farm. In his view, the whole thing is a something and nothing. 🧵

Timely to highlight the life and work of Ben Barres. Ben was a remarkable biologist who transformed our understanding of brain function. Born in 1954, he transitioned from female to male in the late 1990s.

It's timely to highlight the life & work of computer scientist Lynn Conway. In the late 1960s, she transitioned from male to female and was sacked by IBM as a result. For some years, she went underground and, for the rest of her career, worked as a woman - herstory unknown.

I was kindly invited to visit and document the home on Belgrade Road of a long-term resident who passed away earlier this year at the age of 81. She moved into the house with her family in 1957 and lived there until her passing. The house, as far as I can tell, retains its original layout from 1894 and even has a disused outhouse in the back garden. It has no central heating, and the interior features a mix of fixtures and fittings from various periods, including a decorative push plate on one of the doors and old light switches. (1/10)

Terrible 😞😞

Softer than a feather bed - and simply impervious to kerbs. This looks like the perfect daily to us! 😍 Via @ismailabd.car.zd #cars #citroen #citroen2cv #citroenclassic #2cv #classiccars #fyp #viral #reels #reelsinstagram

It’s time for Labour to remember its roots and reinstate the right to peaceful protest. Thanks to @ChrisGPackham for the narration Location: HMP Wormwood Scrubs
