Terror Camp

I went from "huh, I've never considered who birds are named after" to IMMEDIATE beef with the American Ornithological society. I'm also a big fan of Mrs Chippy the boy cat, justice for Mrs Chippy! Thank you to @terrorcamp.bsky.social for a wonderful first Terror Camp! #terrorcamp2025

These are the kinds of things that make @terrorcamp.bsky.social such a joy to be involved with. Thank you to everyone who attended, presented, made a poster or shared art, and helped organize, especially the brilliant @tchotchke.bsky.social! Can't wait to do it again next year

Things I learned at @terrorcamp.bsky.social this year:

-the word “scurbotic”
-the American Ornithological Society is my enemy
-I would take a bullet for a Norwegian museum curator named Anders whom I’ve never met
-you absolutely do not want to know how they figure out the age of a Greenland shark

After spending three wonderful days watching @terrorcamp.bsky.social I had to do a monoprint of our favorite captain, Francis Crozier. #printmaking #monoprint #theterror #franciscrozier

What a pleasure to moderate this conversation. Takeaways: joy, naivety/approaching your work like an amateur, integrity - all sit at the foundation of creative work that lasts in a world designed to make it seem disposable.

Thanks again to the brilliant @terrorcamp.bsky.social team - especially @tchotchke.bsky.social, whose vision and inventiveness bring such momentum to this act of community-making.

Fancy a physical memento of the weekend to keep forever? We have new merch for this year! 🤩

A cobblestone street outside the South Street Seaport Museum. There is a lamppost decorated with Christmas lights, a large anchor, and an illuminated Christmas tree.

This is the first year I've been able to watch Terror Camp live, and it's so much fun! The polar party last night at the seaport was also a blast. 🐻‍❄️❄️🎄

It's Day 3 of @terrorcamp.bsky.social and this afternoon we're kicking things off by learning about paleoclimatology. What a treat! 😍
