Big fan of this Leipzig-based jazz project “no further noise,” which has been collaborating with Ino Café for years. They made a vinyl compilation of recorded concerts which I always found deeply moving. Support them here: startnext.com/no-further-noi….

Leaving Barcelona. Thankful for a well-organized and courageous #EASA2024 conference (motion passed!) as well as an amazing workshop with @liquidperson, @KateEDaws, Caterina Scaramelli and the @Sandworldsgroup. Very smooth… over and out.

Tiny glimpse of a brilliantly-organised @EASAinfo #EASA2024. Full of passion, vigour, creativity, performances, and—most importantly—a powerful motion on “collaborations with Israelî academic institutions in light of the plausible g3n0cīde committed in GAzA.” #AnthroTwitter – at El Raval, Barcelona

Happy to see how this website is accumulating sand stories from Mombasa, Goa, and other places. This piece by Teresa Cremer came out recently; it considers care for oceans and one of its “organs” - sediment – in Kenya.

New issue of @SocialAnthropo1 out now! I remember our editorial team working on some of these pieces. They’ve nicely evolved, through the hard work of authors, editors, reviewers, and copyeditors @BerghahnAnthro. Sadly, the work of the editors rarely gets acknowledged.
