På vei til #DHKO2025 i Hamar! Gleder med til to dager med presentasjoner, verksteder, og gode kolleger. Leser litt i Termlosen (vi skal etablere en termgruppe for digital humaniora på norsk) og litt i Babel av R.F. Kuang. En tilfeldig kombo, men de passer ganske bra sammen. @dhko.bsky.social

Did you truly just refer to the Bayeux freaking Tapestry as "the penis tapestry," NRK? Norway's national broadcaster is so deeply unserious it's upsetting. I wish for better from publicly-funded journalism.

Haven't shared this over here yet, but on Halloween I defended my PhD thesis at NTNU's Department of Teacher Education. So grateful to my supervisors, my evaluation committee, and everyone in my community who helped me reach the finish line. It was a very, very good day.
