@linda_a_burnett's workshop done, presentations attended, scholars met, and conversations had. What have I learned? Surprising things. Here's a partial reflection histories of scientific instructions, lists & colonial travel. @UU_University, @BookScribbler, @eayers0, @dominikhhh 
First off, not all lists are alike. Much can be learned by the order of items, especially when it comes to ethnographic observation. The order of observation tells us about the intellectual context from which the instruction arises. #listing #History #Science #KNOWLEDGE
But study of intellectual context takes us into other domains - of national experiences, of inter-imperial exchanges, of cross-cultural encounters and yes, so often, of violence and indifference to sufferings. #History #Empire #colonized #Violence #KnowledgeManagement
So I figured I should make this a thread. We’ve moved into a lovely bungalow by the sea, but it needs updating & a new kitchen / living area. We started off with these two random blocks on the back, that housed a sun room (UK weather?!) & an old school utility room
These were smashed off and took a very long time, weather didn’t help us
We were left with these slabs still where the buildings sat but they had to be broken through for the new building footings. It turns out they were reinforced with some ofthe biggest concrete slabs I’ve ever seen & we needed 2 enormous concrete breakers on them for 3 days #noisy
