Flooded Pasts

On Displacement and Music

Presently reading a final paper for “The Middle East in Film” that draws inspiration from both the work of Fayrouz Kaddal and @williamcarruthers.bsky.social on Nubian history, identity, and music! Seeing students cite the work of colleagues brings me no shortage of joy. #Egypt

I find online pre-recorded lectures to be incredibly helpful with students, especially as their average attention span has been diminishing one year after the other. A 30-45 min lecture recorded and edited with other material, including videos, documents, sound clips, etc... keeps the stimulation.

Well, I think it’s very useful especially when you put videos, films, podcasts and materials for students to listen to. In one module, we gave the pre-recorded lectures on moodle and used the class time for seminars instead.

📌 this one! It is spot on!

That might be incredibly helpful, especially for the people tweeting the revolutions live in 2011. X/Twitter has become unreliable, and the online archive created by tweeters should be kept safe from someone like Musk.

Egyptian-Palestinian actor May Calamawy's female lead role has been entirely removed from Gladiator II. The official excuses will likely be the usual: 'unintentional', 'necessary for pacing', and so on. It happened before with Bassem Youssef, a pattern that speaks louder than the blah blah excuses.

I mean, wishful thinking. But there’ll always be a big FOMO about the potential of new, exciting people that we end up meeting or knowing online.

It is very helpful when colleagues share these experiences, letting other academics know that encountering a reviewer with a condescending tone happens and that the problem can sometimes be in the reviewer and not the author.
