Abstract Academic

I wrote a piece on what I think about the pressure of taking an examination. Have a read! @SamLP I'm interested in what you think about this :) @UniversityLeeds @leedsteaching abstractacademic.co.uk/academia/on-ex…

I made a video about applying physics models to the economy. Originally done as part of @ucu @leedsucu strike action, some students asked for it to go online. So here it is! #UCUStrike #AcademicChatter youtu.be/chAmZQDgPwg

I wrote a piece on #decolonisation in #highereducation . It talks about how true decolonisation takes place at the political scale, of institutions and nations, and suggests way to proceed. abstractacademic.co.uk/academia/decol…

I did a poem called "A Battle to End Battles". You can read it here: abstractacademic.co.uk/poetry

I did a poem called "The Chains of Identity". Here's a bit: I stand alone, frozen in place, by the weight of identity placed upon my shoulders. Chains around my neck; I wish I could take them off. Read the rest at abstractacademic.co.uk/poetry

So here's a thing. Yorkshire Evening Post did an article about my bus analysis! Hopefully this will convince local stakeholders to do something about it :/ yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk/news/transport…

It's 1 day later and none of the official sources I gave this report to have replied or contacted me, even though they claim to care. I'll give them a week before I conclude that all political will is just hot air and greenwashing

I did an analysis of the Leeds buses to see why they're so unreliable. Conclusion: Leeds buses are bad, but easily fixable @MetroTravelNews @WestYorkshireCA @FirstWestYorks sort it out! abstractacademic.co.uk/politics-econo…

@EmKayAr1 That's exactly what this is xD who knew that mild annoyance would lead to this?

Love a cross scientist who takes looking into an annoyance to its logical extreme

@LeedsCommuters Just a quick disclaimer, I didn't do this on behalf of @UniversityLeeds , I did it on my own time :)

The university’s Dr Ben Hanson recently studied the measurable problems with our local buses. Have a read if you’re interested in just how late your buses are and what bus times actually mean 🚌🚎

I did a blog post about why I think some philosophy should be introduced as part of the core undergraduate physics curriculum in the UK. Let me know what you think! #AcademicTwitter abstractacademic.co.uk/academia/why-m…

I did a blog post about the control of women as portrayed in Imajica by @RealCliveBarker . Have a read (but again, it's pretty dark)! abstractacademic.co.uk/culture/the-re…

I did a post about how magic is used in my favourite book, Imajica by @RealCliveBarker (and also a bit about @BrandSanderson ) abstractacademic.co.uk/culture/the-re…

I did an introductory blog post about my favourite book, Imajica by @RealCliveBarker . Have a read (it's pretty dark though, fair warning) abstractacademic.co.uk/culture/the-re…

I did a blog post on my website about fairness at the micro- and macroeconomic scales. It's extremely counter-intuitive, so maybe it's interesting! abstractacademic.co.uk/politics-econo…

Hi everyone! A year ago I did a Python and Modelling workshop. I finally put it on youtube. Here's the link: youtube.com/playlist?list=… I'm using this @AbstractAcad handle for outreach and #scicomm now. Also a website! abstractacademic.co.uk

First tweet on this feed! Stay tuned for something more substantial :D
