Learning About Invitations: Difference between revisions

Invitations to trail-off may take different shapes and forms. They can look like giving someone a ride, playing bingo or staying around to drink a cup of coffee.

It is up to you to decide whether you want to accept these invitations or not.

If you accept, they allow you to divert from previous trajectories and extend towards a practice of wayfaring and dwelling. Being receptive and open to such invitations is also the most effective way in this Knowledge-Land-Scape to attune to their corresponding insights. When it comes to better understanding of how “ethical engagement” comes to matter in community-based polar bear research, I have found that the most insightful moments happen through unanticipated encounters, attuned curiosity and attentive openness.

It is up to you to decide whether you want to accept these invitations or not. They allow you to divert from previous trajectories and extend towards a practice of wayfaring and dwelling, to "waste" time and to be curious. Being receptive and open to such invitations is also the most effective way in this knowledge-land-scape to attune to their corresponding insights on the meaning of “ethical engagement”. As I have found from my own experiences in the field, the most insightful moments happen by responding to unanticipated encounters and phenomena with attuned curiosity and attentive openness.

In that case you will follow this side-trail until you can no longer “keep going”. When you reach the end of one of these side-trails, you will run into a "dead-end". Once you reach one of such dead-ends, you are offered to return where you came from, and find another way.
