I've been running a wordpress blog since 2009, and over the years wordpress has gotten more and more complex.

I've spent most of this week in the University of Bath with an amazing set of colleagues preparing then managing the UK's main event for women computing students - the BCSWomen Lovelace Colloquium.

Nearly a decade ago I had a conversation with Clive King about setting up a TedX event in Aberystwyth.

Aberystwyth University held a mini-conference on generative AI last week, and Amanda Clare and I submitted an abstract.

On 22 November I presented at BSides Aberystwyth - my title was "AI powered scammers: Looking at four some new-ish types of threat" and the talk was a summary of my thinking about cybersecurity and AI.

Last week we held the 18th BCSWomen Lovelace Colloquium, in Glasgow.

The final report from our gendered microaggressions project is available from the CPHC site: https://cphc.ac.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Aberystwyth-CPHC_Microbehaviours_project_report.pdf We found all sorts of interesting things (read the report for the

I'm trying out some gallery options for an artist, so thought I'd post some of my own paintings as a test.

On April 4th, we held the 17th BCSWomen Lovelace.

We (me, Clem Herman at the OU and Gillian Arnold of Tectre ltd) are running a short project on gendered microaggression in computing at University.

I do quite a lot of drawing and painting (check out my insta) and quite often do courses to keep me on my toes and introduce me to new things.

Aberystwyth University is 150 round about now and as part of the institution's 150th birthday celebrations they've had a series of projects to help celebrate this.

Gosh.

Over the last couple of months I have been intermittently playing with code and with the embroidery machine, and there are a few things I've learned.

We've got a new piece of kit in our university Makerspace!

Programmed Inequality by Mar Hicks is a history of early computing in the UK, starting right at the beginning.

One of the jobs I have at work is to "manage" the makerspace, a room with a 3d printer and laser cutter and a few other cool toys in it.

BCSWomen Lovelace 2022 happened!

ACCU was my first conference for a long time and I threw myself into the conference experience, enjoying talks on all sorts of topics.

In the first week of April I went to my first in-person conference since all this [gestures at world] kicked off.
