My favourite fictional academic: from novels to sitcoms and cop shows, academics have been rich source material across many genres. Catriona Mills, @irinibus, @bethmichaelfox and Melissa Beattie argue the case for who is fiction’s greatest scholar bit.ly/3TKOQBH

Shameless self-promotion time: check out this brand-new collection of essays on academia in popular culture (including one from me on Doctor Who and the Doctor's changing relationship to the a/Academy across old and new series!). link.springer.com/book/10.10…

Of course, this is not a complete map of Australian rock networks, because it is inherently restricted to AustLit's and the project's scope and focus. But it is, for us, a very exciting new step. It's also extremely tactile and fun! Have you played with it yet?

We add a new agent or organisation (Bill McDonough + Australian Crawl), and they and their networks appear on the map. This is something we have been playing around the margins of for a long time, and we are so excited about this.

For us, perhaps the most exciting aspect is that this is tied to live AustLit data--unlike visualisations that export data to, say, a spreadsheet and then create a visualisation, this is tied directly to AustLit's database records.
