[The Virtual Otherwise @v_otherwise]

how is everyone coping with #VirtualOtherwise22 ending? 😶

[Penelope Papailias @penel_p]

#VirtualOtherwise22 #greeknode #day3 bringing equipment and bodies back to the anthrolab and @v_otherwise 22 is a wrap!

[Dr. Elena Kotsira @ElenaKotsira]

Inspired by the approach to #multimodality as picking up different skills in #fieldwork discussed in Map, Story & Photograph of #virtualotherwise22
Remembered myself learning to light fire & unblock from snow in the field. Are there 'professionals' more adaptive than anthros?!

Thanks so much to @NNesvaderani and @emikostock of @v_otherwise for a great conversation about our short film, “Tales..” and for sharing the indiegogo for our upcoming film!!

Extremely thankful to @Cimatheque and @CILASian for two immersive, reflective and beautiful @v_otherwise nodes in #Cairo. Can't wait to continue thinking, chatting and pausing with you all again! 🌞

When your online conference is about to end and you are kind of relieved to leave the screen but kind of very very sad too @v_otherwise

Feeling very connected and grounded after Aimee Meredith Cox’s @v_otherwise Day 3 keynote—reflections on embodiment in this time, senses, a meditation! A nice reminder that through breath we are permeable, literally in touch with the world #VirtualOtherwise22

[Johann Sander @jspmaa]

'Maybe reconing with the fact that you are indeed here', ---- Aimee Cox meditates the final loop of the final day of #VirtualOtherwise22 along @v_otherwise

[Nat Nesvaderani 🍉 (@natnes.bsky.social) @NNesvaderani]

Watching the film "I Can't Really Hear You", a collab project between 2 rad archives of Cimatheque, Cairo & Syros, Greece. Looking forward to post-screening Q & A w collective filmmakers @v_otherwise

[Emiko Stock @emikostock]

Disjunction & Reverberation - Across The Virtual & Material is streaming now @v_otherwise and it's exactly what I imagine collaborative and #multimodal anthropology to be. #virtualotherwise22 #anthrotwitter

#VirtualOtherwise22 #greeknode #day2 ghosting the city….

[Dr. Elena Kotsira @ElenaKotsira]

Deeply moved & bit overwhelmed with today's turnout from the local community of #Pelion to discuss #disasters, #trauma and building #resilience in 'Environmental Perspectives of Trauma'.
Such a hopeful #PEevent ahead of #EnvironmentDay2022
