Four seemingly banal objects -a pepper pot, a napkin, a pack of tissues and a pair of pyjamas -will function as the complicating actions for the narrative presented here. On the surface, this will be a story about the production of luxury in contemporary consumer culture. At root, however, it is a social semiotics of super-elite mobilities, an ideal domain for exploring the materiality of language and the inherently multimodal nature of everyday textual practices. This chapter is also offered as an interdisciplinary reflection on possible connections between academic domains. Just as many linguists are seeking to push beyond the binarising boundaries of language and 'the semiotic rest', the pursuits of literary studies and discourse studies may be more easily aligned than one might imagine. We may prioritise different sites, different texts, different object(ive)s, but our core interests may not be all that far removed when it comes to understanding the interplay of semiotic resources.

“…One of the differences of autoethnography to ethnography is that the former uses reflexive introspection as a source of data, not merely as a means to support the validity of the research project (Wall 2006, 3). Self-reflexivity in its broad and diverse sense is absolutely central to autoethnography, to the very object of its investigation (Adams and Jones 2011).…”

Researchers' reflexivity about how they shape the phenomena that they study within the data collection process is often presented as a crucial component of ethnographic research methodology. Nevertheless, academic literature about ethnography is mostly silent around whether researchers' dreams are relevant to the research process and their interpretation can be considered a valuable material to be reflexive of. While using data from an ethnographic study in two public primary schools in Australia and Slovakia about inclusive education and school leadership, this paper demonstrates how researcher's dreams and their interpretation navigated his decisions about the data collection process, data analysis and ethical aspects of the study. This paper presents original implications for understanding the concept of reflexivity and putting it in practice when employing ethnographic research methodology.

“…Queer autoethnography is the telling of self-stories as informed by queer theory (Tony Adams 3 & Stacy Holman Jones, 2008Jones, , 2010Jones, , 2011Jones, , 2016. This research method emphasizes telling stories that dismantle binary, fixed, and normative understandings; contextualize meaning making; and interrogate issues of power and privilege.…”

Gender Affirming Voicework: An Introduction for Music Therapy

Informed by personal experiences, my queer autoethnographic research, and literature from the fields of speech-language pathology, vocal pedagogy, and music therapy, I offer an introduction to Gender Affirming Voicework in music therapy, the training that it might involve, and several questions/issues that need further exploration. As a new holistic method grounded in a queer theoretical framework, I envision this work to be a therapeutic space focused on accessing and embodying affirming gender expressions by working with the intersections of the physical voice, the psychological voice, and the body as these each become relevant to an individual. This work involves the use of singing, vocal improvisation, chanting, toning, movement, imagery, and relaxation experiences to address areas of vocal function and emotion/identity. Stigma and trauma can come with living in this incredibly gendered and binary world. As such, Gender Affirming Voicework emphasizes radically and queerly listening to our own vocal, psychological, and bodily expressions and the ways these fluidly shift from moment to moment. This is in efforts to speak, sing, move, and live in the most affirming and authentic way we can.
