++ECHO++
*ECHO OF MONDAY 23rd of October:*


"somebody wants to speak?.. if anybody wants to start?" 
"do you want to start?"

so now this just belongs to intro
this is a piece of text 
very meaningful
& we don't exactly know how we will deal with it. 
We just wanted to let you know that we think about it, we will probably try to sit down at some point.

Taking time to actually listen 
Defining what listening is:
Usually we think that we listen through the ears only
But 
we listen with the body,
complete.
as a complete unit
It is not just an action
There are ways of opening the understanding 
for what listening is

Speaking for others and othering
The we and the non-we
The human not-human
It is unresolved
We
We ...
We have now tried with the We,
– it's a strange collective construction.
We have also tried with the You,
– it is terrible.
And the imperative?
– ...
The We is where we ended up,
Even if we're not completely convinced by We.
They? 
– Then it doesn't include you too much?
It is unresolved
It is a question mark

[Sounds: ]

keeping silent meant matching pace as an act of togetherness
not imposing your rhythms on others means the other needs to find confidence to alter or break their own pace
Allow the differences
collaboration and synchronicity
group dynamic can be overwhelming
gives silent voices more space and time

The act of being aware,
We take part with different backgrounds,
Not assume another person will understand exactly what you are talking about
Not make someone afraid to ask what is going on.
In connection with the care for physical and digital environment:
Realise, acknowledge and question 
the assumptions of normativity of technology that we have.
But so when we propose diversions from this normativity;
we should have patience and generousity 
while we share how things can work different 
and allow different speeds to engage with it.

[Sound: shuffled steps]

- walking -- puts you in a different situation on the base of different bodies

body activity to source

The presence of devices 
is not so much tackled 

we are saying non-human agents
but we know there will be laptops, phones
and they are 
all the time there.
How to make them present in an affective way?
The phone is ringing
normally that is interruptive
is it interruptive?
Maybe it is not interruptive?

dissolving of support networks
forms of dispossessions
mutual support
sister-organisations
bringing some praxis embodied through a suitcase

feeling chained to big network (instagram, etc) to share work, liking this idea of sharing 
would like to have a way to share, maybe less internet connected, physical, 
intimacy 

A need for digital self defense

Not valuing only the technological discourse 
in this space
but also the emotional discourse
To speak about imaginations

[Image: Three cats are sitting behind their connected computers,chatting to each other.]

There is no regular delete button here,
but there is a social delete button ...

disobedient behavior as an enrichment of use of public space.
disobedient behavior as an enrichment of use of public space:
Jamming, cranking, walking while listening reading sleeping as a first aid kit

A system of listeners.
Is it maybe something to come back to at the end of the day?
Is it maybe something to put in a first aid kit?

[Sound: many murmuring voices]

I would really like to know how confused you are?
Not really?
Yeah yeah yeah.
It depends.
A little.


*This concludes the Echo.*
