introduction

I wanted to say hi as I just signed up after reading about integrating consciousness and conditions into "coherence" [both noun and verb]
I also am intrigued by this question.
I come to this site from a "sociocultural perspective" [see the book by Jack Martin & Suzanne Kirschner "The Psychological Turn in Psychology The Contextual Emergence of Mind and Self"
This book is exploring the relational within discursive, dialogical, hermeneutic, and neo-Vygotskian [cultural-historica] approaches as plural traditions with a shared focus on the social constitutive formation of consciousness
The notion that Hegel has 3 siblings, phenomenology being one is my starting point. German idealism contrasted with German Romanticism and the place of history is an area I'm curious about.
The exploration of Habermas
4 quadrants of rationality I also found interesting and the positive and negative [shadow and light] within each quadrant is a new idea to me.
I work as an elementary school counsellor in Vancouver, Canada and that is my arena for reflecting and practising the "socio-cultural turn in psychology.
Ken Wilber has fascinated me but I like putting him into PLAY with socio-cultural perspectives.
Hermeneutics as conditions in PLAY with consciousness is another way to express this wonderment. Merleau-Ponty' phenomenology is also a particular interest.
That's all for now but an interesting site to think outside the box
