2024, Schwarzsee

Five years have come, and I’m back in Schwarzsee and at the UNIGE PhD retreat; this time with a hand-crafted workshop on science communication and creative practices. What can I say? It was great and insightful, as it always is when you get to work with a group of more than twenty curious and astute. I was quite happy with the seamless way I found to organize the teams. The substance of narrativity surfaced quite well. Sharpen and streamline analytical content for the next time, to give even more space for the exercises. From discoveries: people don’t seem to use the concept of phenomenology towards their research targets. Then, no one doubted that scientific research articles are stories, it’s simply a part of the research idiom. (Meanwhile, it took us almost three years to construct a convincing argument for philosophers of science).
