    Dear Mike,

    Would it be fair to say that Coffee Hour is a synchronous ( via video, allowing for real-time interaction) dialogue hosted by Cultural Praxis? Other conversations can grow out of this dialogue, like what happened with the Imagination and Creativity Seminar.

    If you want to discuss the Minding the Gap thread, you can go to the other thread on this forum available at https://culturalpraxis.net/forums/topic/minding-the-gap-a-discussion-thread-on-metaphors-related-to-the-transition-from/
    Cheers!

    Yes. Both forms of communication involve shared text, a zoom session, and the potential of follow-up
    discussion. We are still exploring how best to make us of the various possibilities.

    I am glad to heart that I got it. Especially because I feel like we could work on a “submission process” in the coming months so that people who want to initiate a synchronous ( via video, allowing for real-time interaction) dialogue here could understand how to do it.

    In considering the purposes of Coffee Hours and Seminars, I thought that Jim Wretch’s Coffee Hour on “Habits of Collective Memory” resonated amazingly with Shannon Brincat’s first presentation in the Seminar series on Imagination and Creativity in the Works of Vygotsky.

    Damn the spelling correction Wertsch becomes Wretch! My apologies to Jim. I would also add that both Shannon and Jim challenge the collective habits of the imagination, Shannon in international relations, Jim more broadly.
