Thank you to all of our contributing authors and to @academicdiary.bsky.social and Nirmal Puwar for their powerful and often moving conversation with me and fellow editor @emmakjackson.bsky.social on the making and legacy of Live Methods

Writing this special issue we were in another crisis- the brutal destruction of the social sciences– inc Goldsmiths, the intellectual home of the collection. It makes Live Methods, its spirit and aims more important than ever
