This article is a conversation between two qualitative researchers and many known and unknown virtuals, exploring the limitations, possibilities, and ethics of making meaning (in [post] [qualitative] research). This article. An intermingling. Meaning void. A lie. An illusion forced to the fore, meeting a blacksmith’s hammer. An illusion reified, a shard cutting deep. Meaning. It is not here. Nor is it there. It is not. Meandering through momentary instantiations to release to virtuals.
