Author(s): Casimiro, Tânia; Santos, Joel; Leão, Afonso; Wollentz, Gustav; Steyne, Hanna; Seitsonen, Oula; Bockmeyer, Sarah; Pacheco, Susana Abstract: Archaeologists are always concerned about bringing archaeology into public spheres to create narratives accessible to those who do not use our meta-language. These books, narratives, exhibitions, and other forms of communication are prepared to attract people who do not have permanent contact with archaeology. However, we often overlook a specific group who, while not archaeologists themselves, live with archaeology every day: our spouses, parents, children, and close friends. This paper draws on a series of testimonies gathered from family members and companions of archaeologists, ranging in age and background, collected through written reflections, conversations, and transcriptions. By examining these voices thematically, we highlight how archaeology permeates family life, reshapes perceptions of time and history, and challenges romanticized notions of the discipline. We argue that these perspectives provide a valuable and new dimension to public archaeology and demonstrate how those closest to us can contribute to building a more inclusive and reflexive discipline.

Increasingly, these games extend play beyond cities and into forests, reserves, and other more-than-human landscapes, framed as tools for promoting ecological connection and sustainability. Yet they frequently reproduce anthropocentric and extractive logics, treating more-than-human worlds as resources for player progression, rather than more complex, interdependent environments. Using a conceptual lens based on ecological orientations of respect, reciprocity, and restoration, this article examines two experimental Australian AR projects—Virtual Footprints and Epiphyte—that challenge these conventions. Drawing on creator interviews and field observation, I argue that these projects use their small scale and fragility to challenge extractive models of location-based play, while revealing the limits of ecological care within digital infrastructures.

There is emerging evidence that Generative AI also presents us with the opportunity to outsource some emotional tasks, such as flirting on dating apps or apologising. We believe that this may enable unsuspecting users to outsource too much of their affective capacities. Here, we wish to focus on a particular problem: insofar as articulating our own emotions is essential to discovering what we value and thereby shaping what sorts of persons we are, users who are heavily dependent on GenAI for emotional tasks risk forgoing crucial opportunities to develop a proper sense of their own identity.

Th ese are not old ruins or century-old archaeological deposits, but the homes of recently deceased people without direct heirs, suspended between life and abandonment. These recent environments are loaded with meaning and their imminent destruction raises a fundamental question: should they be ignored as contemporary litter or acknowledged as relevant archaeological contexts? This article stems from this debate to propose a reflection about the Archaeology of old age isolation (albeit abandonment).
