Mark, Thank you so much for this. Both your talk, and this essay, are amazing. I feel like there's 4-6 months worth of material to explore & contemplate in your post, and marvel at how clearly you've been able to articulate the last 4-6 months of your own thinking.
I was tempted to open my response with "anarchivist++", partly as an allusion to your point about "protological control", and partly to point out that in our own community here we have a form of that as well, though unlike facebook's "like", it is both owned by & beholden to _us_... I'm not sure why I think that makes a difference, but I do. Like Karen, I can say that your words have shone a light on something that I've also tried to understand. I hear you speaking to what I've tried to describe as an opportunity to merge an archive's or a library's narrative with the narratives of users, scholars, researchers & other interested parties who engage both the resources in our collections & the ideas, people & organizations those resource describe. As I read your post, I realize how much the slides in my own talk about narrative and about context are derivative of the conversations you & I have had on many occasions. I think you've hit on something extremely important about the emerging changes in scholarly publication, and publication in general, and how they relate to the resources in library, archive, and museum collections. The relationship between annotation, research, publishing, conversation, and narrative... I've also been thinking about that a lot, and now realize one of the missing pieces is emotion. Looking forward to talking about this more, -Corey On Mon, Feb 18, 2013 at 10:15 AM, Mark A.
