Hi Atteqa
Interesting day indeed in Pakistan. Thanks for finding time to email. I was thinking that what you are saying reminds me in part of what it was like to live in Belfast when it was very much a divided city. I was brought up there. ISEA next year is in Belfast and the theme is mobility. Deadline is sometime in September for initial proposals.
I wonder if bricolabs might propose a dialogue or series of dialogues that can somehow confront the issue of mobility and the reality of difference. It could be a tools/methods sharing event - or something more creative......I don't know. Any thoughts from anyone not too scarred by this year's ISEA? When I was a teen in Belfast no one ever came there. It would be really good to do something now....:-)

Bronacthanks I liked this text very very much, in fact I quoted from it at a Mauj meeting yesterday, I'd never heard of the term "dialogics" before thisat the meeting where we were being drowned out by a loud guitar in a corner, Yasir was making everyone listen to Urdu and English sms messages being read aloud by this english robotic voice in his phone... we discussed how a large part of Karachi is divided by the languages Urdu and English and how this concept of dialogics could be used to explore and extend beyond boundaries that seperate the 2 culturesAtteqa
