A conference attempting to bring over a bigger picture of water as well as bringing to consciousness our own thinking and thought patterns. This in-person event at Emerson College also invites individuals and groups to participate in locations around the world, linking up through one online session on each of the four days. Observing and interacting with fluid movements in water made visible in various ways. We aim to be attentive, becoming more inquisitive, playful, and creative as time goes on, encouraging a dialogue with the ever-responsive phenomena of flow in liquid water. The approach will be introduced by Simon Charter in the opening session on Thursday evening and practiced through the following days. It will include water flow observation sessions, movement exercises, reflective periods, and discussions.

Contributors: Octavio O Shanahan, Simon Charter, Nigel Wells, Michael Monzies, Philip Kilner

For active engagement, suggestions for interactive flow studies will be shared in advance with group and individual participants. Social interfluence is a word that we take to mean the flux of reciprocal, multidirectional influence, counter-influence and inter-reliance between us, and between us, and our environment. Learning to listen.
