Thank you for including me. Happy New Year to everyone!

I've just finished a book -- Networked Reenactments: stories transdisciplinary knowledges tell -- coming out from Duke around this time next year. It led me to investigate global academic restructuring, alterations in knowledge work since the nineties, and the possible role a feminist "posthumanities" might play in using and understanding media and social media.

I really want to know more about research in cooperation across a range of disciplines.

I think understanding cooperation is crucial to changes now occurring in education generally and higher ed. in particular. I'm interested in skills for explaining to a wide range of publics with very different interests why the work of academies matters. I want to know more about how to make strong transdisciplinary connections to other knowledge sectors. How to scale in for expertise, and to scope out to enable large infrastructural contexts.

I studied with anthropologist and cyberneticist Gregory Bateson in the 70s and his influence is still strong in how I think about complex systems and their workings.

How to walk among knowledge worlds in the plural, and to care about many knowledge projects....
