What a great team! I can't wait to keep working with @lcyflmng and @hellomizk in the near future. – at Chambéry, France
I knew this day would come, but that doesn’t make it any easier: on 31 December 2024, the COMMode team will say farewell to the wonderful @lcyflmng and @hellomizk, who will be moving on to bigger things!

From the lowest dungeon to the highest peak, I fought him, the Balrog of Meowgoth. Until at last, I threw down my enemy and smote his ruin upon the meowntainside.

Such a pleasure to think more about Chaucer, HERE and NOW! & always a treat to see art from @hellomizk!
Don't sleep on her video tutorial, either: youtu.be/wtEe7UnuNzE?feature…
New blog post up! Some reflections on the recent @bodleianlibs exhibition, "Chaucer Here and Now," which featured comics by our PhD researcher @hellomizk and contributions from postdoc @lcyflmng.
& where there are COMMode people, there's obscenity too!

Absolutely thrilled to be starting my postdoc at @unibern this month, and to be represented so photorealistically by a GIF. Catch me (and children's Chaucer) with @15thcgossipgirl and @hellomizk at Kalamazoo, NCS, and on the Swiss train system. 🚂 #MedievalTwitter

CMI have gone into administration. @Filmhouse and @BelmontFh have made all staff redundant with no notice and locked the doors. The buildings go up for sale imminently. This means the end of the world’s oldest @edfilmfest. We’d need about 1.5 mil to #savefilmhouse Please RT
