Discourse for 30/7/2005:

Looking for a metaphor.....Eileen uses the notion of a wheel to teach about culture, and we've been discussing the relationship between culture and discourse - how we can distinguish between them, and also separating out dynamics too, even though we know all three are braided together.
Trying to post a comment to Jyri Engeström's weblog but "typepad is down" at the moment. :-( Anyway, it's below. Found him via Lilia's post on Living Relationships. Need to go back over the Powerpoints etc.
