Fishwick Papers: The "Interpunct" Edition

Good eeevvenninnggggg.Did you picture a dramatic swivel in my chair as I said that? Good. I'll keep this brief, because the sooner I finish typing, the sooner I can get home and start bingeing Season 2 of Jessica Jones. This week has been fairly research heavy; I'm looking into early cinema and it's brought me such delights as Etienne-Jules Marey's Photographic Rifle, and the amazing photos it produced, among others. I'm also going to be speaking at a museum conference in Brisbane in just under two weeks (eep!) and I'm excited about how that talk's coming together. Hopefully, I'll finish Jessica Jones in time to start working on the slides for it.
