I’m excited to announce that I’ve started a Substack! And, a series of YouTube videos (click on the first one below!) that will run more-or-less in parallel. In general both will be taking over from this blog, though when Substack updates deal with new work, I’ll post those on here as well.
Part of the plan, on both platforms, is to revisit the material I’ve posted on here over the years, looking at it from some fresh perspectives for a broader audience. But there’ll be plenty of new thinking and new work too, to some extent picking up where I left off on themes that this blog has introduced. As you can see I’ve recently been less active on here than in the past; that’s partly because my posts have caught up with maps from previous years (and the new, generally larger ones don’t come quickly), but also I’ve been giving the themes some extra time to evolve and solidify. I doubt that process is complete, but it’s reached a point where I think I can talk about these newer ideas with some degree of clarity and confidence. And it makes sense to do that for a wider range of eyes and ears, with added opportunities for engagement.
So please check me out on those two platforms, like and subscribe, and don’t be shy about sharing your thoughts!
