So: a lifetime of missing the mark, going astray, stumbling, fumbling, stuffing up, and overcooking it finally pays off – along with economist Séverine Toussaert and digital studies scholar David De Roure, I’m on the panel for the final TORCH Talk of the academic year at the University of Oxford, taking an interdisciplinary look at failure.

Come join us at the Schwarzman Centre for the Humanities, 12.30pm-1.30pm on Wednesday, 10th June.
