#Season: a letter to the future (2023, Scavengers Studio) contains an abandoned archaeological excavation you can explore and document. The entire game is a rumination on material memory, intangible heritage, and the difficult choices surrounding what (and how much) to preserve of a culture about to be, quite literally, washed away.

#introduction to the other #histodons !

I'm a dress historian with an interest in all things #adornment and #MaterialCulture. I'm interested in the #HistoryOfDress, #HistoryOfTextiles, and the #EarlyModernAtlantic.

I have a book in copy edits right now on the dress culture of early #Acadia, and a paper coming soon on #weaving in Scottish Cape Breton.

My current big project is on #spurs and #EarlyModern #masculinities, and I teach a four-course sequence on global #FashionHistory.
