Dear friends,

Sally-Jane, thank you for forwarding the manuscript of your beautiful presentation, to the Spectre list.

In the meantime, the RIXC team have put the video documentation of the Deep Europe Symposium online in the programme section of the festival website:

https://festival2022.rixc.org/

(What is not recorded here are the meetings that we had before and after the symposium sessions, reinstating the Syndicate in a new disguise whose form we will yet have to await as it takes shape...)

Best regards,

Kia ora friends, colleagues

For the Deep Europe Symposium Andreas and Rasa Smite organised in the context of the "Splintered Realities" conference held in Riga last June, I contributed a text which seemed, for me, to be the only way to contribute to this reflection on a community that means/ meant much for so many of us. In multiple ways.  Following the conference online - scattershot, given time zone differences - for me was heartening, memorable, and eminently humanising. It was great to re-encounter thoughts and friends from long ago, long missed, but still clearly driven by the values we shared 25 years ago. Andreas asked if I would share my text, which is below. There's an irony here - I seem to have unsubscribed from Spectre a few months ago, because I was finding it hard to relate to a list essentially publishing announcements of faraway events.  Yet the "Deep Europe Symposium" re-awakened the sense of closeness founding and longstanding Spectre members always represented for me. So hopefully this will make it to the list, without being too out of kilter as an Antipodean's reflections on Deep Europe.  I'm prefacing the text with comments I sent when forwarding this to Andreas after the conference/ symposium.

warm wishes to all, stay strong, kia kaha

Sally Jane
