"In my search for a language that might help me articulate
questions around my experience, I read the works of cultural thinkers
Ien Ang, who examines the 'space of the in-between' and cites the
state of "living in transition" that is not straightforward
and complete but in a constant 'transitionality'; and Irit Rogoff,
who engages with the question "how and where...meanings [are]
determined."
