The CLEENIK is searching for "sick" ethnographers interested in donating their time for science, sharing their suffering experiences, and helping others find the #xcol™ cure!
For this, you would be receiving a treatment FOR FREE in our internationally renowned CLEENIK, an institution with the most innovative experimental collaboration techniques for the treatment of contemporary fieldwork disorders.
Come and share them at the CLEENIK, an #EASA2016 Lab05 (22 July 9am Room 2)
Have you ever suffered from…
EES - Excess of Engagement Stress?
When you and your natives get 'too involved' or simply 'become too strange'. Symptoms may include permanent conflicts, provocations, an excess of questioning, quarrels, love & hate relationships, irritation, misunderstandings, too much objections, mutual aggressions, constant jokes, natives making fun of you/you making fun of them, playful inversion of roles or blurring the boundaries sensation ('natives' becoming the observers and you the object of their scrutiny), frictional effects, unpredictable consequences - and in extreme situations, ethnographic breakdown.
GN – Goingnativosis?
It's that point when you realize you did it all wrong - in the ethnographic process you have become a professional 'native'. Symptoms may include (cultural, disciplinary) identity crisis, feeling like a foreign in your own culture, feeling unadapted when back home, becoming too critical about your own culture (the 'things are so much better back there' kind of feeling), feeling like being a stranger within the anthropological community, or never being able to 'come back' (physically, emotionally, etc.).
TRIAD - Transdisciplinary/Interdisciplinary Associative Disorder?
Better summarised as the "One does not born, but rather becomes, an anthropologist (or something else)" feeling. The more typical symptoms of TRIAD are disciplinary disorientation. In our clinic we make change-of-discipline interventions –either from anthropology to other disciplines or from other disciplines to anthropology. You can also choose the hybrid half-way!
CLEENIK is a specialized anthropological clinic. We treat anthropologists suffering from the multiple syndromes consequence of ethnographic experiments in fieldwork. If you think you may have suffered any of these syndromes or you want to prevent in case of starting fieldwork, you may just drop by to our session and ask for advice and treatment.
In the CLEENIK we will create the grounds for a discussion around the figure of ethnographic experimentation in fieldwork. For this, we ask participants to share the diseases they have suffered in their fieldwork.
As a way to find a cure, we will propose the construction a network of Ethnographic Experimentation <http://xcol.org/interventions/collaboratory-for-ethnographic-experiments/>.
