(Disclaimer that no specific people/groups/events/quotes appear in this per se, though combinations/half-imagined versions of them absolutely do; this was v much an experiment in mashing together real things that happened into broad symbols to tell the story in an accessible way)

Interrupting my writing-up-phase Twitter quietude to confirm that I did, in fact, turn my research into an extremely simplified, mostly fictionalised, whistle-stop-tour @bitsypcs game, in honour of my (almost certainly) final #chase2021encounters.

@robwitts *Intense* early-2010s Britain flashbacks. I'm now genuinely really curious about the state of the ukulele in Germany in 2021 and if it looked as dated there as it felt here, but I'm writing up so someone else will have to have to do that one ;)

@deer_ful Ok so I want this at some point. I want to be assaulted with insight and knowledge. I’ll never be able to get one but I want to know my options.

Every morning I wake up and think about buying an omnichord for 30 minutes and then I get on with my silly little life.

Do any of my audio nerd pals know about audio processing/sequencing/editing in Python? Wondering about good libraries and resources for this...

@Sarah_Records I feel like this is a bit glossier than the other stuff people are recommending here, but if I am honest with myself it’s definitely this, since I basically did not listen to anything else for months during the summer youtu.be/L_Tvi4v_j0M

@yaxu @superSGHP Autoethnographically speaking (lol), I'm not convinced that many of the activities I currently do which check all the boxes for flow will remain as 'autotelic' as they currently are when I don't have a quarterly stipend coming in, for instance.

@yaxu @superSGHP I mean IMO it's objectively 'real' & a neutral term in that it names an experience many people recognise. The details, like the idea that a defining feature of it is it's always desired/enjoyable, are where it gets troubling for me, bc how can you remove that from social context?

@superSGHP @yaxu also this is relatable as hell, except that for me it's 'I am an artist to the extent that I am not a wife' lol

@superSGHP @yaxu Yep, I think my biggest doubts about it come from how it clearly describes a state lots of people can point to & go 'I do that!' but most research of it involves surprisingly little co-production of knowledge. So of course it leaves out huge swathes of (marginalised!) experience

@yaxu I do wonder if the extent to which it's been absorbed into lay speech at this point means it's being treated as axiomatic

@yaxu @superSGHP (& feel a bit like a broken record because I always come back to this, but in terms of inclusiveness/defining it, IDK if it's possible to record subjective experience without ethnography. Don't ask Csikszentmihalyi if women experience flow, find some women & ask them, you know?)

@yaxu @superSGHP I generally agree though think there's something interestingly subversive there in the idea that it is its own reward (which tracks w/my own experience of it); the Guardian article framing it as a motor for productivity seems at odds with how I remember it being defined

@yaxu @superSGHP but generally I'm not sure if it's much more useful than labels like 'in the zone' are in casual speech (which also leave more space for a range of experience/self-definitions)
