  • compose within
    • Terry Elliott
       
      This "within-ness" is highly problematic.

  • un-introduce ourselves
    • Terry Elliott
       
      I like to un-unintroduce people. Would that be de-remediating?

touches of sense...: In a tangle. - 0 views

  • "We might cool down the conversation with explicit norms, clarifying our objectives and assumptions,offer facilitation and other support in an attempt to achieve real dialogue. Over time the constraints could be loosened."
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Howsabout we use something besides abstract nouns, words that remove us from feeling and touch? Cool, hell this is downright cold.
  • emotional blackmail and silencing tactic?
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Oh, yes, Simon.  You are effectively self-silencing.  The best kind of kink in the communication hose, n'est ce pas?
  • "Who is in? Who is out?" and when and where and who decides?
    • Terry Elliott
       
      I am always an outsider, by termperament and by design.  Iconoclast is the word I use to describe myself.  I actually get a bit sick when I feel I am on the IN. I love the OUT. And I don't need a fucking box cutter to get out.  Something goofy, hilarious, and irritating about the video.  A classic out-y as far as I can tell.  Not so much a prophet as someone who says, "Fuck you. Now what are you going to do about it."  I live in a part of Kentucky where that attitude has been raised to an art form.  It's called cutting off your nose to spite your face.  I am a practitioner.

  • There is not one community. There are multiple communities. These multiple communities are not fixed (much).
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Or alternatively there is no community?
    • Terry Elliott
       
  • I don't do belonging very well.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Rumi: You are granite. I am an empty wineglass. My question is this:  who are you and who is the community.  And more...maybe you are the falling glass or the rising granite.  Confusing and confabulatory, no doubt.  
  • I am a man for example. (of this I AM SURE).
    • Terry Elliott
       
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Cool this down?  No, I dinna think so.  Not a hoochycoochy man.  
  • I am a human tangle embodied.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      And more.  More than a man, a h-u-m-a-n.   And an entangled body way more tangled than just your communities.  And weaving from past to future through memes and genes.  A regular Gordian Knot.
  • So I suppose I could say that the varied and fluctuating communities in and around rhizo14 have varied and fluctuating curricula.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Which is to say--there is no curriculum.  Omnia saecula saeculorum.
  • Rhizomatic Learning, it would seem to me that this is as far as we can take it.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Which I never wanted to take down into the academic abatoire to tear apart and eat.  The rotten corpse afterwards just stank.  
  • no 'cool web' or 'hot web'
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Well...I am happy in my ignorance as to what this signifies much less means.  For the month of February I have been living pretty damned close to the bone, flaying and being flayed.  Hard, sharp edges to my life can't even be bothered to say, fuck this shit, I got better thought to thunk. 
  • Keith Hamon has written a great (IMHO) post about complexity ethics.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Tried to read this.  in fact, what I do understand of it I wrote about in a different context a couple of weeks ago.    
  • Assertive Humility.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Oxymorons point to the paradox of language, the Babel-ical inadequacy of words.  How helpful are they except to make us sit bold upright and pay heed to how entangled and embodied our knowing (and not knowing) are.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Of course, in all humility, I am being totally derivative in this annotated response.  Nothing original although I am repeatedly striking my flint to your rock.
  • There are moments when I am moved to formal academic research.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      I am almost never driven to formal academic research.  It shrivels and circumscribes and confines like an unwanted annotation.
  • I prefer to be inclusive.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      I weary of the fond hope of reciprocation.  In myself and in others.  Mostly in others.  I am unashamed to admit I need it. I am astonished that it is so little given online.  So I give it elsewhere and, as is said in labour circles, I withdraw my goodwill.  
  • I wonder how these co-exist - in a warm soup of happiness?
  • Thank you for your part in my tangle.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Quantum entanglement back atcha.
  • I am in good company.
    • Terry Elliott
       
  • That in itself gives me some cause for hope.
    • Terry Elliott
       
  • There is a light side and there is a dark side.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      My way or the highway?
  • I am in a bit (?) of a tangle.
  • I am not at all sure whether drawing a line is appropriate.

  • I realize, it’s as much to convince and reassure myself.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Very wise grasshopper
  • education is a big deal

      Learning is the big deal, education can go hang.

Symphony of Ideas: 2014 - a year of connection, disconnection, and loss - 0 views

  • 2014 was a year of work. 2015 should be a year of fun. That's my resolution.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Then you have to play without end or purpose in sight.  That is the infinite game.
  • Indeed, wrestling myself away from my smartphone might be just the signal my muse needs to come around to visit me again
    • Terry Elliott
       
      I am beginning to practice what James Altucher suggests here:  http://www.jamesaltucher.com/2014/05/the-ultimate-guide-for-becoming-an-idea-machine/
    • Terry Elliott
       
      One my ideas was that we could start a 10 Creative Ideas Club using Hackpad.  Here is link to prototype: https://hackpad.com/The-10-Creative-Ideas-Club-lQtZ3D1hY7x
  • Relocating the muse
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Keep jabbing at the dog named Resistance that protects the Muse. Keep jabbing.

  • One of my desires as a teacher and learner is to obscure the artificial boundaries that exist between formal and informal learning, 'school' and 'real life'. Such distinctions between digital connection and analog, 'face to face' connections should also be blurred.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      I think one way to do this blurring is to observe and share more of your own life.  I am beginning a series of posts called "Petty Joys" that chronicle the 'small beer' of my life, stuff I love that doesn't rise to the level of epiphany.  I am blurring the lines so that the editor in my head doesn't send out a rejection letter.  My first petty joy is the peanut butter stirrer. Watch for it.
