Thinking about language, Country, and VR with @Djinjama and @andrewxburrell for this paper that just came out in the design journal Leonardo is one of the most enjoyable pieces of research I've been part of leoalmanac.org/nura-yaman-co…

I am naturally inclined to be cynical, but our school sending out these hampers was actually really sweet and means a lot

First day back on campus since more than a year, and this mail in my mailbox made my day. @daanvanesch BOTH cards made it, but one was a bit singed! Thank you!

Just realised there was a card in the singed mail, from NL post, stating (according to Google translate) that they are "sorry annoying")

Weird to be back in my office. The pile of stuff on the floor I dumped out of a drawer during the 15 minutes I had last April to reenter campus and collect my things. To-do list on the whiteboard a year out of date. THIS is where my spare glasses were. Coffee beans are stale.

So excited about the launch of this tonight! It marks the end of a fantastic year of partnering with National Trust NSW to create digital exhibits for this exhibition and do some research around digital cultural heritage
We're getting ready for the fascinating new science exhibition, 'Enquiring Minds', at Old Government House, delving into 18th and 19th Century voyages of discovery. It opens to the public tomorrow 10am - 4pm, but here's a sneak peek... More info 👉 ow.ly/FFM550DKd9S

1am is the best time to finally crush a bug in your code that has eluded you for days. It lets you sleep the sleep of the self-satisfied.

I don't know why my phone thinks I'm likely to want to share this picture with the Australian government, but I'm tempted to do so anyway.

The spiteful punching octopus news story led me down a rabbit hole of reading about non-mammals behaving like people. And I would like to share something with you from 'Ants, Bees and Wasps' (Lubbock 1884)

Lubbock experimented with getting ants drunk until they lie on their backs and wave their legs around. He found that most ants will pick up their drunken friends and carry them home, but a few just throw them into puddles of water instead.
