First thought was the book "History Man" (although based elsewhere & I get the same thought in most UK campuses). I was also thinking how will the humanities fare there in the long term.

Being based in Finland sometimes means going to where others are. My grand tour 2025: MECANO in Rome; DARIAH in Göttingen; ECSS in Stirling; cancelled Morrissey gig in Stockholm; CERL in Brussels & InkCode DH2 in San Miniato. To come: DH2025 in Lisbon next week & CASCADE in Helsinki in late August.

We bring news from The Past at #DARIAH2025 in Göttingen with representatives from dariah.fi (and
@tolonen.bsky.social )... In a surrounding that sweats academic heritage, and home to figures such as Koch, Gauss, Heisenberg and Oppenheimer. Look for them in city walls, look for us to chat!
