‘Life Lessons from History’ for BBC HistoryExtra

Love learning like Athelstan

Worry like an ancient Mesopotamian

Procrastinate like Queen Elizabeth 1st

Waste management in Edo Japan.

Samurai 'night soil' was prized by famers for being superior fertiliser.

We can learn from our medieval forebears how to make modern rituals around death feel personal and meaningful,

Riddle about every day objects like an Anglo Saxon monk

Hug a tree like the Baltic pagans

Paint your own pot, like an ancient Etruscan

Seek out the sounds of nature, like our early modern forebears

Allow a little enchantment into your life

Be supportive like the ancient fruit sellers of Pompeii

Live locally, live sustainably, live medieval

Collaborative research into Electronic Assistive Technology

lllustration for an article about collaborative research by speech and language therapists into Electronic Assistive Technology (EAT).
The themes in the text were: shared knowledge, networks, collaboration, community, support and nurture which immediately made me think of BEES! I went for a hive vibe with symbols typically found on EAT devices inside the honeycomb.

For a Bulletin article about realising participants in parent focus groups were not who they said they were.
My idea was to show a fox pretending to be a chicken in the hen house.
