How do we exist as many? The workshop invites participants to explore plural narratives and emerging ontologies as a hopeful practice of re-ordering and re-organizing. Drawing on “famous misunderstandings” in ANT, Ingold’s “The Life of Lines” and Barads’ “Agential Realism”, we engage in a dynamic visualization exercise to map the relational netmeshworks we inhabit—and continuously co-create. Shifting perspective from viewing ourselves as independent entities to recognizing our embeddedness in relational netmeshworks reveals new possibilities for organizing resistance, building alliances, and fostering collective action. By visualizing plurality, we trace and mobilize collective agency and reflect on our past and future paths. The workshop fosters a participatory exploration of how we emerge through ongoing relations.
