Thongchai is a professor of Southeast Asian History at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and author of the well known 1997 book Siam Mapped: A History of the Geo-Body of a Nation.

Here are my Tweets from the event, in reverse-chronological order. I thought it might be helpful to provide them all together here.

More soon on this topic, perhaps, but I wanted to post these snippets for now.
