Rhizomatic mappings
Cath Ellis wrote a blog post about how the London Underground is rhizomatic. I love this and she’s right – it has multiple entry ways and no correct route. Indeed, if I am not in a hurry then I plan … Continue reading

Rhizomatic music

On Cheating
In the introductory video to #rhizo14 Dave Cormier talks about cheating and asks how this might be usefully applied to learning. He defines cheating as taking an answer that is not mine, and discusses in a bit more detail some … Continue reading
