Collaboration and totality (1)
I started this blog in the second week of a three week pause in the mural workshop I’ve been running with Project WOW! at NJCRI in Newark, New Jersey. I intend to use this space as a true log of the progress of that collaboration and others. A reader might have missed that fact given the posts so far. I explain it this way: I also hope to present, to the best of my ability (and in my own way if you don’t mind), the context in which these collaborations occur and the new contexts which these collaborations create out of themselves. As I already wrote in the “about” section: “we are none of us the sole proprietors of discovery.” I may not share the readers’ assumptions and my premises may not be their’s. A sensible conversation is very difficult to have under those conditions. So slowly, one post a day and occasionally interrupted by a log of the actual business at hand, I will try to sketch my horizons so readers can see where we cross.
