Dear Participatory Steering friends,
Thanks Beth for putting together the folders already in Googledrive.
Initial notes are in the Participatory Steering Google folder:
Here’s a snapshot of my own refraction of what I heard and saw…I try to sketch
an aspirational project in anexact terms (to borrow from Deleuze), to see if any of this
resonates, before re-angling and digging deeper….
Of course we will sift together and refine concepts and vocabularies, and
add contextualizing references as we sort out different goals and audiences,
and who pitches what to whom. I think it is healthy to expect a few distinct
sets of goals that will have incommensurate requirements on how to navigate toward them…
eg academic studies (amenable to research agencies of states),
versus practical work (amenable to development funds / ngo's).
Different epistemic cultures / discourse communities will expect different archives and discursive logics.
I’m happy to work appropriately to address different communities.
