I am so proud to be included in this lux little new zine @thespectrallines by @carniefilms for ‘seekers of unveiled meta-realms and anomalous infringements on temporal law’ 🕯️💀 My piece, ‘Grey Ladies in the Crumbling Stones: a love affair with the uncanny gothic feminine’ 🥀 is in gorgeously frightful company alongside contributions by Charlie Hall of @hauntedmagazine , @thetapelibrary , @susanelainejones1972 & @king._of._terrors 👻 — and several other contributors too mysterious and elusive to be on social media! 🫥

‘Unlocking Heritage Stories: How the use of audio walks as creative public engagement expands access to site-based heritage to a diverse and globalised audience’, Digitising Heritage: Transoceanic Connections between Australia and Europe, (Heidelberg: Heidelberg University Publishing) 2024
My chapter ‘Unlocking Heritage Stories’ in the new Digitising Heritage book has been published and out now from @uniheidelberg press! 📚 This work takes my public engagement findings from my practice-based PhD project of audio walks through @abneyparkn16 forward to include findings from subsequent audio walks in @fothcp@museumofthehome & around London. 🎧🚶🏻♀️☠️
The goal of this work is to share my analysis of both the process and the benefits of crafting digital projects as part of a public engagement plan within heritage sites, offering what is hopefully a helpful resource for practitioners to create their own digital heritage content. 📝🏰

North London has captured the imagination of gothic writers through the ages, exploring both sides of the region’s possibly: one a promise, one a threat.
‘21st-Century Victoriana: Our Love Letter to the dark’, Folklore Thursday, October 2020
We humans would rather have something a bit flawed but true than gloss-plastic perfection. On the surface, that doesn’t seem to be so—with ‘reality’ TV shows illustrating a life that’s nothing like reality and Instagram influencers filtered into poreless automatonica—but there is an undercurrent backlash to this that I see all around us. Our collective psyche is seeking to balance itself: enter Victoriana.
