If you are troubled with the way we know the world, with the “traditional” academic sets, with the way certain bodies (maybe your body too) are treated, and with the way certain things are hidden and excluded in academia, so this text is (maybe) for you! . . . if you think “science” is the way to know the world, “valid” knowledges are made in academic sets, and papers represent the “scientific product,” this text is also (maybe) for you too! Playing with our personal/political stories, we do a co-performance autoethnography to honor different way of knowledge. We invite you to think with us about science, resources, and possibilities embodied in our texts, in our lives.
