Jones will draw on more than 60 blog posts published on the road, including images and videos that show some of the materials, arts, relationships and knowledges required to perform low-damaging travel in Australia. The presentation will demonstrate that collaboration is an essential part of free travel. Relationships create and nurture resilience, and gift economies become part of the collaborative experience. Chance plays a significant role in such movement, and ’embrace uncertainty’ becomes the collective’s mantra.
