Preparing my first public talk on the topic of #listening. I am going through my #fieldwork material from #Kyrgyzstan and found a little notebook into which I had drawn 1 sketch each evening. This is me, sweeping the courtyard, listening to my neighbours' girls singing & dancing for me. I miss them.

Reading Basso (1970) on #silence among the Apache. He discusses parents not speaking to their child who returned from boarding school: “When the silence is broken, it is almost always the child who breaks it. His parents listen attentively to everything he says but speak hardly at all themselves." 😍
