By Ian M. Cook, Fiona Murphy, Çiçek İlengiz, Priyanka Borpujari| Allegra Lab@ Imagine the moment you first encounter a piece of creative ethnography—a poem, a performance, an image—that speaks to the heart of human experience in ways that traditional academic texts rarely do. It moves you, challenges you, perhaps unsettles you. But what happens next? Do you simply appreciate the work and walk away, or is there something deeper at stake in this encounter?
By Ian M. Cook, accessible. This| Allegra Lab@ TRANSCRIPT OF THE AUDIO ESSAY (listen if you can, don’t read, this is for reference)Ian M. Cook: Yesterday I took a break from my morning doom scrolling through anger, pain, fear, and aggression to check my H-Index.I checked the number of times my publications had been cited by other authors. I didn’t do this to cheer myself up. It’s almost as depressing as doom scrolling.I checked my H-index because I needed to create a metricised, accountable, legible version of myself for a grant application.
