Counterpoint to the AHA Committee: it is NOT OUR JOB TO TEACH AI literacy. It is our job to teach students history, critical thinking; how to interrogate and analyse sources, primary and secondary; how to write and weave historical narratives; how to communicate history to the public and more.

Once a childhood favourite of mine; now a favourite of B. I was sorry to hear that Allan Ahlberg has passed.

A fine legacy.

We were saddened to learn of the death of Allan Ahlberg, one of our much-loved and respected Fellows.

He leaves behind an extraordinary legacy and has earned a place in the hearts of millions of families.

Our thoughts are with his loved ones.

You’re no longer welcome to join Quizteama Rossetti. I suspect my knowledge of music far worse.

Classical music I can do. Music theory, fine. Anything vaguely popular after 1999? Nope.

First two classes of SM2 down. It’s not my unit, and geared around creative coding.

I’m about 5 minutes ahead of 60% of them, and way behind the other 40%.

It’s interesting to be in a laboratory-type classroom where I, the instructor, is learning alongside them as we explore this.

Growing up in the 90s UK - known for its delicacies & high nutritional values - I used to love Smith’s Salt & Shake Crisps. Plain unsalted crisps with individual blue packets of salt that you would add β€˜to taste’. Probably discontinued now

I’ve been reading Blanchot again and finding their writing useful on opening up ethical encounters with unknown Others.

But I’m wondering if there’s any literature out there on ethical encounters with those who will never be known? I’m thinking long extinct Others.

cables Cables is a tool for creating beautiful interactive content. With an easy to navigate interface and real time visuals, it allows for rapid prototyping and fast adjustments.

It’s totally out of my comfort zone but I’m teaching* first year artists with cables.gl this coming semester. Although my efforts land between ZX81 and MSPaint it’s been quite fun. If anyone has any funky historical or heritage patches let me know
