“Love and caring are seen as emotions is the weak, not fitting a masculine identity” #ECQI #ECQI2026Athens

“Why would you like AI to substitute in therapy?” Is an unanswerable question #ECQI #ECQI2026Athens

“Collecting data is the gifting of another’s story to a researcher: data are more than things, they are living connections animated through the exchange of story” #ECQI #ECQI2026Athens

On my way back fr #ECQI in Edinburgh. Outside was bright, freezing, beautiful; inside warm, stimulating, surprising. Anne Augustine & I offered a Game Changer on ‘how are climate emotions constellated?’ - working w the climate café model & an adaptation of constellations, and seeing what emerged.

Larissa Sansour/Søren Lind's Monument for Lost Time provided inspiration for my presentation "Bodies that know gendered hurts" this year at #ECQI. Another wonderfully inspiring conference, warm thanks to this year's organisers Fiona Murray and Jonathan Wyatt, what a success!

European Conference of Qualitative Enquiry was lovely. Edinburgh was lovely. Company was lovely. #ECQI

#ECQI 2025 is a cornucopia of creative inquiry, meetings of bodyminds breathing the nip in Edinburgh's air. Tomorrow I present a collaboration called The Dream Society, bringing the Social Dreaming Matrix from psychoanalysis into relation with the postqualitative practice of collaborative writing ♥️

Headed to #ECQI in 2 days! Who else is going? We've got a Game Changer on #AffirmativeEthics - come see us for session 1 on Jan 8 at 8am! #ECQI2025
