I want to follow new accounts on #Mastodon and would appreciate if you could #recommend accounts to follow.

Ancient Knowledge Networks: A Social Geography of Cuneiform Scholarship in First-Millennium Assyria and Babylonia
Ancient Knowledge Networks is a book about how knowledge travels, in minds and bodies as well as in writings. It explores the forms knowledge takes and the meanings it accrues, and how these meanings are shaped by the peoples who use it.
Reminder: #CfP for the #conference "Undoing #Knowledge. Stories of Knowledge Formation in the Long Nineteenth Century". which will take place at the University of Leuven (#KU_Leuven) on December 14-15,2023.
How do we produce and disseminiate #knowledge of sand without reducing it to an object, mineral, or resource? The S.AND team has kicked off "Sand Bundles" to share our curiosity about #sand , other granular materials and coastal geology beyond academia. In exchange with artists, activists and curators, we wish to co-develop tools that bundle theoretical and creative perspectives for an Anthropocenic understanding of sand. Join us via the Ecological Design Collective. www.ecodesigncollective.org
#Meditation sharpens your #concentraiton and your thinking power. Then piece by piece, your own #subconscious motives and mechanics become clear to you. Your #intuition sharpens. The precision of your #thought increases, and gradually you come to a direct #knowledge of things as they reaally are, without #prejudice and without #illusion .
