Editorial highlights the practice of transmaterial worlding, indicating its relevance for systemic practitioners.
Issue 1 of this tenth volume of Murmurations: Journal of Transformative Systemic Practice has two sections which share a focus. The first is a collection of writings which answer the question of what transmaterial worlding can look like in practice. The call for papers was a response to the 2019 paper published in this journal, “Transmaterial Worlding. Beyond Human Systems” written by two of the editors of this issue, Leah Salter and Gail Simon. The response was such that it is likely to lead to a second themed issue and/or a book of selected papers. The second section offers short papers on the impact on practice of reading papers in this journal, a new development which will continue into future issues. The focus on the impact of new ideas on practice, in both sections, is important. What we write needs to be meaningful and relevant for practitioners. Most papers in this journal are written by systemic practitioners who want to study their own practice and share how their learning might make a useful contribution to the world.
