In this performance autoethnography, the author uses the poetic language, rather than silence, to express the emotional truth associated with their lived experience. Exploring the convergence of multiple identities, they use Tweets as prompts to elicit deepest inner experiences, striving to elucidate situated knowledges that emerge from within. This creative-relational-and-performative process of producing an aesthetic text serves as a cathartic outlet, bringing forth the deeply personal, cultural, and political dimensions of being-in-the-world. The methodological consideration accentuates the significance of individual expression and encompasses the truth-seeking and poetical examination of everyday engagement with this (in)visible lifeworld.

Interpretation is a key aspect to any qualitative research process. Inherent in analysis, researchers must ask what informs interpretations and whose interpretations are accepted as reality. These questions call attention to power and its connection with interpretational practices, while some might argue that it would be impossible to render any interpretations that are data. In this article, we describe our own feminist, collective analytic interpretation as being guided by a set of commitments rather than a set of procedures or a guiding theoretical framework. We highlight how our approach to collective interpretation through a set of feminist commitments is achieved. Then, we outline those commitments, leaving readers with an idea of how to build a feminist collectivist interpretation process into their own work specifically or contemplate the collaborative nature of interpretation in analysis of qualitative data more broadly.

This article develops an innovative approach to intersectional biographical interviewing for researchers working with highly diverse, partly unknown populations and focusing on systems of intersecting inequality, rather than “groups” or “lists” of intersections. Drawing on fieldwork with Black and Muslim Italian migrants with different class backgrounds, the article discusses theoretical synergy as a tool to redraw analytical boundaries vis-à-vis emergent knowledge of intersecting inequalities, and to connect different analytical dimensions in biographical analysis. Moreover, I introduce field-specific questions as a technique that captures the contextual effects of intersecting inequalities, minimizing the risk of essentialising minority ethnic participants.

In this article, we share the results of a year-long project (a poem) and the process by which we created the poem, which we term voces poéticas. The poem is the result of 11 pláticas held over the course of nearly one year and is composed of words, phrases, and sentences that represent our experiences and identities as Chicanas/Latinas/Mexicanas in the academy. Our pláticas provided a safe place where we shared and held space to reflect on our experiences at predominantly white institutions (PWI) and theorized our experiences in relation to other Chicanas/Latinas in the academy. At the heart of this process was a type of poetic inquiry we call voces poéticas that was used to analyze and share our findings. We describe this process of creation that we also view as an act of resistance.

I use this narrative to trace ways in which writers such as Graham Greene and Michel de Montaigne escaped from tedium and unhappiness so that they could live better lives and write for greater pleasure and satisfaction. I then outline ways in which I have struggled to escape from the prison camp of strict academic writing.

Giulia Carozzi, Lindsey K. Horner
This article posits that current priorities of many research ethics boards make them a self-undermining entity in that they perpetuate the erasure of certain knowledges and with them the bodies subjectivities and subjects that live them. Through obscuring the history, geography and onto-epistemology of the assumptions underpinning ethical review these boards reproduce dominant Eurocentric and postpositivist assumptions about what is and isn’t valid or worthy research. Employing Santos’s notion of epistemicide and joining it with Barad’s ethico-onto-epistem-ology we explore how the instruments of “Ethics” act as a mechanism for reinforcing what Massey labels a dominant “geography of productions of knowledge”

Ken Gale, Jonathan Wyatt
In conversation with Claire Parnet, Deleuze is quoted as saying, “(w)e were only two, but what was important for us was less our working together than this strange fact of working between the two of us.” Deleuze’s concept of “between-the-two” has been used by “Gale and Wyatt,” as a leitmotif for the collaborative writing with which they have engaged “between the two” and also in collaboration with others. The persistence and longevity of this usage has led to the possibility that an “image of thought” has been brought to life which is constitutive of the “us” rather than the “betweened.” In this, have “Gale and Wyatt” continued to swim in the calm, unquestioning, and welcoming waters of qualitative inquiry? Have they, in so doing, avoided those eddies, swirls, rip currents, and deep, dark waters of post qualitative inquiry that might be working to pull them out into the turbulent seas of free and wild concept making where, in becoming, their writing might move away from the applications and representations of simply human-centric thought and action and be of a more immanent doing? In this article, “Gale and Wyatt” address their alertness to the doing of this image of thought. They ask, does their collaborative writing rest more on the “two” of them, the people doing the writing, than on the “between” that talks more the materiality of relational space(s) unfolding amid them? In this article, they affirmatively critique this possibility. They ask: Between the two? How does this betweening work? What does this betweening do? Only two?
在与克莱尔·帕内特的谈话中,德勒兹被引述说:“我们只有两个人,但对我们来说,重要的不是我们一起工作,而是我们两个人一起工作这个奇怪的事实。”德勒兹的“between-the-two”概念被《盖尔和怀亚特》(Gale and Wyatt)用来作为合作写作的主题,他们在“between-the-two”中进行了合作,也与他人合作。这种用法的持续和长期使用导致了一种“思想的形象”被赋予生命的可能性,这种形象构成了“我们”而不是“之间”。在这种情况下,“盖尔和怀亚特”是否继续在平静、毫无疑问、欢迎定性研究的水域中畅游?在这样做的过程中,他们是否避免了那些漩涡、漩涡、激流,以及后定性探究的深而黑暗的水域,这些水域可能会把他们拉入自由而狂野的概念形成的汹涌海洋,在那里,他们的写作可能会远离以人类为中心的思想和行动的应用和表现,而成为一种更内在的行为?在这篇文章中,“盖尔和怀亚特”强调了他们对这种思想形象的警觉。他们问,他们的合作写作是否更多地依赖于“两个人”,即写作的人,而不是更多地依赖于在他们之间展开的关系空间的物质性?在这篇文章中,他们肯定地批评了这种可能性。他们问:在两者之间?这两者之间是如何工作的呢?这两者之间有什么作用?只有两个?
