#HowMightWe work together towards #EpistemicJustice through #OpenEducation without falling through traps of #OpenWashing and #fauxpen?

Grateful that @pkirn is able to cover research @Silpayamanant …
“It’s not enough, then, to just be a scholar.”
Precisely. #HowMightWe bring scholarship to ensure that “the next four millennia of human civilization [benefits from] as much preserving as the last four”?

There's no need to imagine the history and conception of music as beginning and ending in western Europe. The history of music is far older, richer - and stranger than that. Here's a glimpse of some of that and more resources to help broaden our sense of what music can be.
@lightweight It might be useful to focus on the phenomena themselves. Yes, including #LibreWashing, #Fauxpen, as well as the whole distinction between software freedom and open source development. There are diverse actors taking different postures which may or may not jibe with our values. Dispassionately, we can still describe the “Ecosystem of Open” with diverse initiatives taking root despite counteracting forces.
In other words, #HowMightWe design this ecosystem for the common good?

Sounds like this blogpost is making the rounds and sparking a renewed discussion in #OpenEducation beyond #OER.

#HowMightWe move into collective action towards our shared goals? While #OEweek is a celebration of all things OE, there's a generative tension when we bring things in a new context.
Open Education Week is, yes, a celebration of the achievements of Open Education and OER, but where do we have some critical exchanges about it? We have had a few open discussions during the OEWeek Live conversations such as what defines the “open movement”. And a few people have asked about how much is at stake by become more tied/beholden to commercial platforms and systems. So not for fighting but some good back and forth I am tossing one into the mix. I am prompted by a tweet this morning ...
@weblearning At the risk of raising controversy: part of the point, for me, is that there's more to #OpenEducation than "Open Content" (OERs and such). And opening up EdTech is more than leveraging LibreTexts or Pressbooks.
Useful, to me in this case, is Paul Stacey's #LandscapeOfOpen (before he became Executive Director @oeglobal).

The #HowMightWe question then brings business models in a broader context. Especially if we overcome #OpenWashing.
So…
#HowMightWe “thoughtfully discuss Ethnic Identity in Electronic Music”? And how could this relate to #Thoughtfulness more generally?
For instance, is it possible to go from the 1D “pros and cons” to something #multidimensional?
Ha!
Too bad I missed
Lorna's #OER22 preso about #OpenTextbooks for #MusicEducation.

Outside of my dayjob in OE, been slowly getting through a longterm, self-funded, informal, and fairly chaotic for #InclusiveMusicalLearning.
For a teaser:

Not to be provocative. Hoping to be #ThoughtProvoking instead. https://www.rebus.community/t/alt-text-for-music-notation/1304/12
