A quick Friday reflection. Creativity, agency, time and space help us stay focused. We all need variety to maintain physical and mental health. Every action has an effect. Pauses can help us and others catch up- too many immediate responses disallow time and space for meaningful work. We must try to allow some air in. Patience, tolerance, empathy, time and space so that the work that needs doing does get done well.
My passion is creating opportunities for discovery, creativity and innovation. I am an advocate for enhanced access to information as a public good. I enjoy fostering engagement and openness, facilitating collaboration and mentoring.
My main focus is multi-disciplinary and involves practically and theoretically connecting the dots between varied, closely-related fields and topics: comics studies; human-computer interaction design, library and information science, digital humanities, scholarly communications, publishing studies, digital innovation and material culture, intellectual rights and open science, access, data and educational resources.
I love writing and spreading the word about the things I believe in. I love higher education and the Internet and I define myself as a digital scholarship advocate. I love working collaboratively and on my own. You can still follow me and/or contact me via Twitter @ernestopriego.
