Had a great morning talking to Connie on BBC Radio Scotland, all about accents. You can listen to the full slot to hear all about people’s experiences (9am), and I make an appearance from around 1030 onwards.

This is in light with the new film directed by James McAvoy, California Schemin’. Where two Scottish rappers ditch and pretend to be a Californian duo to make it in the rap world. It is great to see accents, and accent bias being spoken about more frequently.

I can now officially say I've completed data collection for my PhD! Ending it with 76 participants for my eye-tracking experiment.
A lot of eyeballs and organisation in the making. A momentary sigh of relief before onto the next stage, analysis time!

Had a great time at #UKLVC15, held at @LancasterUni. I presented my research that looked at using large-scale corpora and real-time methods to model non-linear trajectories of sound change, and explore any social relevance for these significant timepoints of change. (1)

It was lovely to present my work amongst such a supportive group of researchers, and to also hear about the exciting work going on across the spectrum of language variation and change. Thanks again to the organisers for a fantastic time!

Very excited to be going to #UKLVC15 tomorrow. Even more excited to be taking a break from intense eyeball viewing, to be giving a talk tomorrow on Glaswegian sound change.
See you there! 🙌

This week I took part in the annual #SGSAH symposium, where I was an interviewee for a live academic job interview.
Really grateful for the experience and hoping it was helpful to onlookers as much as it was me!

Another day, another eyeball.
Very grateful to my wonderful guinea pigs who have tested out my various experiments. Excited for what's to come over the next few months! 👀

A different break away from the PhD this Easter, in the form of trekking the Sahara and tagine in the Atlas mountains. It was great to make new friends & to turn off for a while.
Now feeling rested and ready to get back to my research, armed with my Moroccan mint tea!

We welcomed Rebecca Starr for this week's #GULPLabLunch. In a fascinating talk, she explored style commodification in China's enregisterment-rich social media. Looking at 'fizzy voice', 'clip voice' and 'ASMR' (1/2)

Today we were treated to an in person #GULPLabLunch by Ruohan from @ucl on his research.
In a beautifully sophisticated experimentalndwsign, Ruohan explored style variation in L2 speakers English due to perceived listener characteristics, such as ethnicity.
谢谢 🙌🧠

🚀We have lift off!
It was great to finally test out my current eye tracking experiment and pull through some data to make sure all is working fine, and for a few more tweaks to be made.
A little PhD win to keep me going. And thanks to @JanetCoulson for lending her eyeball!

Could your accent make you sound guilty?
A new study from @MMLL_Cambridge @JesusCollegeCam @NottmTrentUni shows that British people still associate accents perceived as ‘working-class’ with criminal behaviour.

I thoroughly enjoyed presenting my research, alongside @RShawHawkins, at the @UofGEnglishLang Research Seminar! Extremely grateful for the opportunity to take part in this event.
Thanks to all for attending & for an excellent discussion afterwards 📽️ 🧠
Yesterday our PhD students @RShawHawkins & @lucejackson were the invited speakers for @UofGEnglishLang Research Seminar.
Ryan and Lucy gave excellent talks on their current work & received wonderful feedback as they advance in their PhDs.
We're proud of our #GULP team! 🙌

And that's a wrap for the Christmas holidays 🎄🎅
Ended on a high with getting my pilot eye-tracking study off the ground today! This included all my 'spliced & diced' speaker stimuli, and extracted time points for the gaze analysis 👀 Excited for the break with loved ones ✌️
