Abstract

In this autoethnographic (Ellis, 2004)/self study arts based research (Springgay, Irwin, Leggo, & Gouzouasis, 2008) for the award of Doctor of Philosophy in Education, I am participating, creating and inquiring through a new methodology of wandering, wondering, pondering and making. This immerses me in playful living inquiry exploring the Deleuzian concept of becoming, in transit.
