If you're at @4sWeb, check out my book "Observing Dark Innovation" (on method and innovation studies) at the @BrisUniPress book stand!

The devices in this thread were all first developed in the #publicsector, and are mentioned in my book, Observing Dark #Innovation. It was great to spend time talking about them with the amazing curatorial team at @IngeniumCa

The Bedford Institute's underwater rock core drill, which collected samples from the ocean floor confirming theories of continental drift. On public display at @IngeniumCa #oceanscience #oceantech #PublicSector #innovation

Thanks to the team at @IngeniumCa (Canada's Museums of Science and Innovation) for hosting a reading of my book "Observing Dark Innovation" at their library yesterday! #innovation #scientificinstruments #oceanweek #ocean

"Traditionally the public sector has been the enabler of innovation. This is something people tend to forget, but we need to bring that back in the ocean space again." - @barkha_mo of @iucn at the UN #OceanDay event unworldoceansday.org/un-world-ocean… #Ocean #DroptheS #Innovation

"The greatest mystery of the sea...is why don't people care?" - Dr. @SylviaEarle at the UN's #OceanDay event unworldoceansday.org/un-world-ocean… #Ocean #DroptheS

On World Oceans Day, @ryanmacneil celebrates on Transforming Society the crucial role that the public sector can play in ocean-saving technology. Such innovations must not be left purely to the private sector. #Ocean #innovation @AcadiaU ow.ly/HFt250SaAcU

Can't stand to watch recordings of myself, but I grabbed this screenshot, and I definitely said something like this—something about the irony of pinning down novelty—during my book launch: youtu.be/h16S8D96Ckw #innovation #darkinnovation

"On some level, innovation studies knows that it is fighting an unwinnable battle. It is trying to standardize that which cannot be standardized" — @alfrehn, during the launch of "Observing Dark Innovation" youtu.be/h16S8D96Ckw

@alfrehn That last paragraph! 😁👏

I love curling, and think this post is "right on the button" 🥌

Congratulations to the class of 2024 🎓 @AcadiaU @AcadiaBusiness

Book Launch: Observing Dark Innovation. Why does scholarship on innovation fixate on certain classes of technology? Could our research tools and techniques be concealing as much as they reveal? Register here to find out (May 13, 2:00 PM) @ryanmacneil: ow.ly/qp5h50RBUe6

A reminder that you can join us on Monday for a zoom conversation to launch "Observing Dark Innovation." We already have participants from 9 different countries. Event details and signup here: launch.darkinnovation.com #innovation

Could the study of innovation be concealing as much as it reveals? Our book of the week uncovers the neoliberal biases behind the tools and techniques of innovation research. By @ryanmacneil for @BrisUniPress buff.ly/3UGAXVr

We will be officially launching "Observing Dark Innovation" on May 13 at 9 am EST, 3 pm CET. Join me, @alfrehn, and Ellen Pearce from @BrisUniPress in thinking about how method matters for the study of #innovation. Grab the zoom link here: launch.darkinnovation.com

@mikeeasttowest And I've personally benefitted immensely from support by two different coaches over the years, most recently John Guiney Yallop guineyyallop.ca

@mikeeasttowest I recommend this book to some of my students: designingyour.life

How do you make big life decisions? The archival photo below captures just one of the many dilemmas one might encounter in one's life! I'm on the hunt for the best #career planning/decision-making tools you've ever used. Books, frameworks, podcasts, rituals, coaches.
