Learning in Liminality
John Cuthell
Year of posting: 2013
Abstract:
A MirandaMod. A group of people come together in a room. They are joined by others: not present other than as words writing themselves on a screen; as a low-resolution images and voices echoing across continents; as symbols on a growing map of concepts and ideas. Some will have made their mark earlier, leaving traces from which others will build, After the group has left, gone away from wherever to wherever, the words, images, voices, symbols and ideas will remain, to be re-purposed by the passing strangers who will bind themselves into this community of liminal space, wandering scholars through a virtual digital world.
What is happening? How is it happening? Who is it happening to? To whom will it happen? Who – where – are the agents; the actors; the participants? Where are the boundaries? In a state of flux, where can permanence be found? The answer could be everywhere, and nowhere.
