LODE-zone Europe - To every place there belongs a story

A Cargo of Questions

The LODE project of 1992 and the Re:LODE project of 2017 is about generating questions that begin with places.

 

 

To every place there belongs a story . . .

To every story there belongs another . . .

The Information Wrap

Each LODE-zone Page on the Re:LODE blog has questions generated from the Information Wrap (a newspaper and a dateline) of the LODE cargo of compass creating materials. 

This Cargo of Questions relevant to 2017 takes the information wrap of the global electric information environment and makes connections accordingly . . . . . 

This cargo of questions results from a process of laying out the territory as best as possible so that any audience for LODE and Re:LODE are able to use their own intellectual powers to determine for themselves what may or may not be taking place and what is right and what is wrong.

The purpose of this cargo of questions is not to persuade, but where it is clear that a question has been formulated in such a way that it becomes rhetorical, please consider the fact that the idea of neutral objectivity is at best misleading and often fraudulent.

Exploring what is going on in the wider world only makes sense if we are also exploring what is going on where we are situated, and where we are coming from. (see Theory of Rhetoric as referred to in Optimism over Despair by Noam Chomsky, page 51)
