#GLOBSEC2025 'included reflections on and from the arts for the very first time... [signalling a] shift in how we think about security, power, and the ways we collectively imagine, perform, and build more resilient futures': performingcityresilience.com… #emergencyplanning #resilience
A bit of job news I've been sitting on but it's now public... After 5+ years, I'm moving on from @NorthumbriaUni to become Head of Winchester School of Art and Professor of Performance, Culture, and Resilience @unisouthampton the University of Southampton (full blurb in image)
It's a huge change (and a bit of a daunting one) but it's also really exciting! I'll miss @NorthumbriaUni , it's been a brilliant professional home and I've had the privilege to work with incredible colleagues across the institution.
