Hi Jef,

Why do you see "*more* encompassing, increasing agency as separating" out
from other values? 

Do you think that identity opposes connectivity?  Are you are looking at
this issue from "individualism" as self at center of the universe and
identity as perspectives stemming from the individual as a solo agent? 

I thought I referred to as indentity as relating to the fluid, "distributed"
posthuman.

Best,
Natasha
