  • THE final reflection. Part 1… or the case of the AWOL muse

    WARNING TO THE READER THIS IS A WORK IN PROGRESS. THE CURRENT ENTRY REFLECTS PART OF WHAT I’VE MANAGED TO COHERENTLY (?) WRITE DOWN UNTIL NOW. THERE’S MORE TO COME BUT IT WON’T HAPPEN UNTIL PERHAPS TUESDAY 13TH OF DECEMBER 2022. Writing this is a bit of a weird experience. Unlike the other entries, the…

  • …and so the story goes…

    Topic 4 was again a walk down memory lane. It took me 12 years back on time when my former boss decided that, because of my training as a group facilitator and session moderator, or perhaps because of my well-known chutzpah to venture into uncharted territories, I might be able to design an online course…

  • Sorry I’m not home right now, I’m walking into spiderwebs…

    “…so leave your message and I’ll call you back […] You’re intruding on what’s mine And you’re taking up my time Don’t have the courage inside me To tell you please let me be Communication, a telephonic invasion I’m planning my escape…” In 1995, Gwen Stefani crooned these lines, part of the song “Spiderwebs” allegedly…

That…

  • do we really want to move to the bottom-right quadrant?…

    … particularly when we’re purposefuly opting out of the upper-right? (OK, better said: trying to steer clear from the right quadrant altogether) Let me explain, David White’s interesting representation of our lives online started with the continuum between visitor – resident, personal-professional matrix, bringing about very valid points about how we choose (?) to spend…

  • …well, hello there

    The last time I tried writting a blog was exactly 13 years ago, when I moved to Karlskrona, Sweden, and my friends – some of them sick of my incredibly long emails full of accounts of my life, thoughts and whatnots, kindly suggested creating a blog instead of… sending them kilometric emails they felt compelled…
