Back from the conference! Here's a 15-minute reading of the paper I shared at the 81st meeting of the Western States Folklore Society, on how academic guild history and oral folk tradition offer, and necessitate, different ways of being in time.

‘We are never at home, we are always beyond. Fear, desire, hope, project us toward the future and steal from us the feeling and consideration of what is, to busy us with what will be, even when we shall no longer be.’ - Montaigne

Michel de Montaigne, The Complete Works: Essays, Travel Journal, Letters, trans. by Donald M. Frame (New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 2003), pp.9-10.

TODAY for #migration #decolonisation and #temporality scholars: HUMA Ataya Seminar Series #38 | Loren B. Landau & Iriann Freemantle | Migration and the African Timespace Trap: Temporal bordering and its undoing | Thurs. 24 Nov. 2022, 5pm SAST https://uct-za.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJIpcO-trjojGNNu1IJ68Gyo3VeNkeMtfowh

Decided to attempt a non-flippant introduction to see where this goes. I am an #EarlyModernist interested in the intersections of #TheatreHistory and #BookHistory. I am currently working on a book called #PlaygoingTime. As part of this project I'm reading lots of interesting interdisciplinary work on #time and #temporality as well as theories of #media and #performance. It's a bit of a new venture for me and little more theoretical than my previous work but I am enjoying learning new things!
