@Schwarz3n3gg3r @COHEcrea Thank you! The panels were organised soooo well and I really enjoyed your presentation.

@yanning_chen @COHEcrea Really liked your approach and presentation. Glad you submitted to us

Happy to have presented my research on mnemonic labor and material engagement with old mobile phones (1970s-2000s) yesterday at #ECREA2024! Submitting my abstract to the @COHEcrea section was a great decision, as temporality and media technology were central themes of discussion.

@Richardson_Emm Hope he comes back soon, Emma!
