Academic conference attendees: you know how hard it is to pick which papers to attend with parallel sessions? By attending #icmpc18 and the Music for Parental Wellbeing symposium concurrently (online), I’ve doubled the problem! Exhausted already!

Warm and humid at work today, so the perfect time to remember this lovely embroidered fan which was a gift from a student.

Not sure if you knew my dad had Parkinson’s, @michelle-phillips.bsky.social. So for me this is an emotional area of research, but an important one.

That’s a long time indeed! I’m wondering whether there’s an emotion attached to the earworm for him or for you.
