Right now…at this very moment…FR is meeting for the very first time…(drum roll please) on/in/through skype chat. Our plan: to cut and paste our discussions into this blog (edited, of course—or not). This first meeting is focused on familiarizing ourselves with the tech: the delay, turn taking, keeping our threads straight. The discussion is weaving back and forth and side to side—apt given we’re brainstorming tomorrow’s activity for our presentation at the Three College Graduate Research Exchange at Chelsea. Our current focus, you ask? “Irony as a tool”—which begs the question: A tool for what? Irony is a tricky one, don’t you think?
