These are the inhalations~exhalations of one atelierista engaged in a daily turn about, an ongoing conversation, a line of flight that casts pebbles into ripples and tacks between the lived events of reggio emilia's pedagogy of listening as a world view of communities in collaboration whenever certainties are questioned and a way of becoming-allthings deleuzoguattarian through the visible trace of this expression.

With threads of ideas darting out from everywhere into every where else "like ticks and quilts and fuzzy subsets", a Reggio approach to learning also values this in its practice of building connections to community while also creating counter cultures that begin to re place art at the centre of all learning. As I interpret both philosophies, to draw comparisons, it seems that each approach is an immanent practice, a pedagogy of listeningtotheworld and then responding with art as its toolboxforsocialchange.
However, as I continue to expermiment with imageandtext within this bloggy hybrid space, I will remember your suggestion that the clean white calm of the screen can be enough.
Thank you for your comments!
