It’s showtime! Rehearsals have begun for our @BeingHumanFest event @the_spring with @UniPortCCI students.

Looking forward to giving my paper "The car on the forecourt, the Kenwood in the kitchen: the taxonomies of luxury goods in post-war Britain" on Thursday 7 July at the annual @socialhistsoc #shs22 Lancaster University #kenwood #ideasofluxury

Delighted to have been awarded a grant from #BeingHuman2022 to support my event in collaboration with @SMGresearch, @UniPortCCI & @the_spring. Our event explores how demonstrators sold the Kenwood Chef to consumers in postwar Britain. beinghumanfestival.org/

I am excited to dig into issue 38 of the @modernistmag. Longing to see a Kenwood Chef on the counter of this dazzling kitchen as would @DeborahSuggRyan @hpsaucey55. Its elegant lines would look great next to that orange fridge.

A few more hours to go until Blame the Tools symposium begins - fantastic programme ahead shorturl.at/eioCM. #BlameTheTools #LCW2020 @CCWResearch @UAL #kenwood #eyeappealisbuyappeal #toolpower

Blame the Tools: Crafty Robots, Well-behaved implements + Disobedient Devices. Excited to be presenting on 8 Oct. I'll be talking Kenwood appliances, playful efficiency and the anthromorphisation of designed objects. @camberwellual @kingsbschool #LCW2020 #eyeappealisbuyappeal

Hi I’m Alice (she/her), and I’m about to start my first year of my PhD @portsmouthuni. My research is focussing on the design, mediation & consumption of Kenwood appliances from 1946-2020 #twitterhistorians #HLFollowFriday @IHRHistoryLab

I'm thrilled to announce that this October I start work on a unique PhD with the wondrous title 'Eye appeal is buy appeal':The design, mediation and consumption of Kenwood's kitchen appliances, 1947-2020'.
