<p class="MsoNormal">Before I introduce week two I thought I would update our bibliography and artist’s list. See below and feel free to update.

<p class="MsoNormal">A huge thank you to Catherine and Marissa (and Ellie for chiming in). To recap this past week, I would like to talk about some of the highlights within our conversation that perhaps our week 2 guests may want to pick up on. Somatic “knowing”
or awareness and the practice of making connections between the way we live our personal lives and the networked inter-dependent world may help all of us to understand “residual contamination.” This bio/environmental network that is directly relational affects
our health and environment. Residual contamination is connected in a rhythm of movement though our bodies and everything that that surrounds us.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Can we work through residual contamination through critical transformation and intervention? Can there be a positive side of contamination that emerges through art practice?
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Can we become mindful and re-familiarize ourselves with the concept of time? By consciously connecting with our networked environment we can share mindfulness and DIY options creating a linked chain of reactions much less dependent on processed
and manufactured solutions. <o:p></o:p></p>
