One of our project's Research Associates @dphilipjones has a new paper out, all about zines and current trends in zine research! Open access, and now available in GeoHumanities!
🚨 NEW PUBLICATION ALERT 🚨 In my latest, #OpenAccess paper I discuss the ‘trends’ in academic use of #zines, and through reflections on my own zine practice I call for a shift away from practices that feed into #capitalist, #neoliberal agendas. doi.org/10.1080/2373566X.202…

It was a pleasure to end the working day with a dedicated space to create and discuss our vision for an anti-ableist university with researchers across @iHumanSheff! We discussed everything from the concept of academic drag, to being more like mushrooms... more to come soon! 🤩
