A Personal Account of a Chance Encounter with Postqualitative Inquiry at the Foot of a Mountain

Postqualitative inquiry (PQI) compels us to think about educational studies in a different way. It requires ways of doing beyond regularised structures of humanist epistemology, ontology, and methodology. This article endeavours to describe my introduction to posthumansism and unplanned discovering of postqualitative inquiry through learning by doing. My (brief) journey with postqualitative inquiry has followed unexpected pathways, filtered through porous boundaries and discovered unheard voices in in-between spaces. This allows PQI to become more than knowledge-making. It is also a pedagogical and onto-epistemological venture and a rich, sensory and startling adventure of discovery into the entanglement of the social and the material.
