Some nights are just special. A typically brilliant lecture on painter John Linnell, a cultural geography of gravel & a tribute to his friend & colleague Dennis Cosgrove at our @RHGeoHumanities lecture by Stephen Daniels, my friend, collaborator & mentor. So proud to be there.

Where did the coloured gems in your earrings or your ring come from? Were they grown in a lab or did they come from the ground?
Gem-stones are one of the fastest growing commodity sectors in the world.

Did you know the deepest hole ever dug by humans is 7 miles deep? That barely even scratches the surface of the Earth!
The Thinking Deep team is experimenting with creative practices & research methods to explore the subsurface. 🧵1/6
