Co-labouring in writing: from single author to complex forms of composing knowledge

The workshop is aimed at discussing possibilities of coordination, collaboration and composition in academic writing. Following short introductory presentation by workshop chair the participants will be expected to engage in small scale exercise of collaborative writing. The workshop will discuss collaborations in anthropological writing as a way of knowledge dissemination that is based on coordination and collaboration of a group of people that consented to think along the lines of multiple authorship. It will take into account the histories of experimental ethnographic writing that challenged the notion of single academic authorship. Likewise it will consider contemporary developments in digital and open-ended writings. The workshop will try to answer the questions such as: how to organize (effective) collaboration, what does it imply, can we experiment with authorship, can we experiment with the ways how the texts are composed, and how digital publishing changes the landscape of collaboration… The workshop participants will be expected to prepare mandatory readings, and engage in collaborative text writing (3 pages in length) on a topic of group interest. The groups will be expected to discuss and elaborate general interest = collaborative planning ; administer roles/tasks, deliver framed texts and report on co-authoring exercise. By employing the paradigm of an academic writing/publication being an ‘unfinished project’ the collaborative writing exercise will seek to gain multiple insights from different members of collaborative group on their experience in conducting exercise.
