ABSTRACT

The paper has been produced by fifteen scholars from North America, Europe and Asia who gathered together at NIC for a collaborative writing workshop following a performance/workshop exploring performative auto-ethnography, which had been conducted the previous day by Tami Spry. This account was created through cycles of image sculpting/ talking/writing/ reading aloud/ talking and planning together - all informed by a process of ‘riffing’ off Tami’s and each other’s work, using collaborative writing as our means of inquiring into and out of Tami’s performance/workshop.
