writing a book….

without comments

Writing a book is a very humbling experience - you see (read) how many people have already written about what you thought was something you “discovered”…

Marketing the idea for the book and shopping it to publishers however … one has portray it all as “new”…

hmmm

okay - back to reading/thinking/writing

rereading Lisa Nakamura’s digitizing race intro - getting ready for class and also to work it into my book.

Lots of clarity as I see what she does with the notion of digital visual cultures and race….

so CM and I are on a roll with the Technology and Race writing … and yet - why should that surprise me - CM is wonderful to bounce such thoughts off of… I always knew this.

Race and Technology..

with one comment

Breakthrough breakthrough.

while spamming C (my RA this fall) with random thoughts on the chapter I am working on and while writing a research statement for yet another something else… I had an Aha moment about my argument related to race and technology (central to my book on Technocultural Agency) - but now I have to go back and read a bit more.

but let me dwell on this happy moment as I try to stick to the practice of eating only fruit for dinner for today….

so much for being offline

without comments

So today I opened my laptop as usual with my cup of morning coffee - but today I was determined to shut off all social networking possibilities….

so I told my twitter friends - call me if you must contact me - am offline

I told my facebook friends - call me - am offline today…

and then opened my email … and there were a series of email alerts from blogger telling me about the posts on Radha ki Betiyaan - the UK neice has been prolific this morning….

but seriously - I will be offline today - call me if you must talk to me and leave me voice mail because I may not pick up the phone.

Loss, structure, organizational memory and Modernity as Tradition

without comments

Thinking through … loss - what does it mean when someone dies…

loss of voice, loss of location , loss of work that might not otherwise happen…

which sorts of organizations suffer in what ways through the loss of a member to death or otherwise…

and if it is death - what are the unique implications?

thinking through this in relation to Seema, Julie and Ruth - blogging more elaborately on radha ki betiyaan since it is private and personal to me…

but maybe I will have more on this here later.

blogging about blogging, twittering about blogging, facebooking about blogging and now even emailing alerts to family members about possible surprises in a blog post….

without comments

okay - so the title of this post says it all:)

Now that "radha ki betiyaan" has become another excuse for me to

blog about my life… I suddenly have to send out email alerts to some

members of my family about something I blogged - in case that is the first t

time they would see or hear about it and be surprised….

well - more communication - is that good or not?

if more communication through multiple channels

when is it more effective

how is it more effective

p.s. have to laugh at where the tag radha ki betiyaan links to…
