Podd 8. Jonas Wik om att hjälpa andra autister, på svenska by AutSpace

We talk to Jonathan Drury the founder of the Autism Dialogue Approach.

I avsnittet pratar vi om the Autism Dialogue Approach och vårt samtal med Jonathan Drury i det tidigare avsnittet, Podd 6.

I detta avsnitt pratar vi om jaget. Om identitet och att försöka beskriva vem man är. Vi tar också upp våra tankar och erfarenheter kring hur en autistisk grupp fungerar och hur den skiljer sig mot en icke-autistisk/neurotypisk grupp.

Vi fascineras förstås av olikheterna och tycker att det är spännande att försöka förstå dem. Vi kommer också in på jobb intervju situationen, där det ibland förväntas att man med en stor mängd adjektiv ska ringa in vem man är. Man kan fråga sig om det ens är möjligt?

Vi som är med denna gång i podden är Hanna Bertilsdotter-Rosqvist och Serena Hasselblad.

I detta avsnittet pratar vi om speglingar - om att känna igen sig i andra.

Rösterna ni hör i det här avsnittet tillhör Hanna Bertilsdotter-Rosqvist, Helena Ulvatun och Serena Hasselblad.

I ett autistiskt rum – är det autistiska sättet att tänka utgångspunkten.

I ett autistisk rum så kan vi spegla oss i varandra och på så sätt bygga upp kunskapen om oss själva och om vår omvärld. Då blir det mer tydligt för oss vilka vi är.

Med namnet – autistiska rummet - så vill vi beskriva en situation eller plats där det autistiska sättet att tänka och prata är den naturliga utgångspunkten. Och där vi inte behöver förhålla oss till en icke-autistisk utanpåblick.

I ett autistisk rum så kan vi kan vi spegla oss i varandra och på så sätt tillsammans bygga vår egen inifrånförståelse av oss själva. Då blir det mer tydligt för oss vad som är normalt för oss....

Då kan vi också minska den negativa påverkan av existerande stereotyper om autism, stereotyper som skadar oss genom att de bygger på en tänkt norm som det anses dåligt att avvika ifrån.

I avsnittet diskuterar vi också hur det autistiska kommunikationssättet ser ut.

In this episode we'll talk to Hajo Seng about his workshops called Autistic skills and his research on autism.

Hajo lives and works in Hamburg. He is as a technical project manager at the National Library. He received his PhD at the end of 2019.

In this podcast you will, besides Hajo, also hear Hanna Bertilsdotter-Rosqvist and me Serena. Hanna is an associate professor in sociology and senior lecturer in social work at Södertörn University. I Serena have a PhD in technology but now runs projects in the field of autism. Hajo, Hanna and I are autists, we define ourselves as autists and see it as an important part of our identity.

In the pod we mention the work of Peter Vermuelen from Belgium and his idea that what characterize autistic people is that we are context blind. We also mention Laurent Mottron from Canada and his research group that includes autistic researchers.

You are listening to the podcast "Det Autistiska Rummet" made by Autspace.

In this pod we strive to create an autistic space where we can reflect ourselves in each other and build knowledge about who we are. Here the autistic thinking is the norm.

In this episode you will meet Jenn Layton Annable, who is an activist and a doctoral researcher at the University of Nottingham, in the UK. Jenn is researching how persons who are identified as autistic, later in life can develop a positive selfhood. Jenn is supported by the Horizon Centre for Doctoral Training at the University of Nottingham (UKRI Grant No. EP/S023305/1) and by NIHR MindTech. They are a Fellow of the Institute of Mental health, Nottingham, in the UK. They are an autistic autism-studies doctoral researcher investigating the intersection between gender, autistic experience, and self-identity.

During our conversation Jenn will discuss how terminology, the choice of words, is essential in the process of creating an autistic space. Another important feature is the unusual internal sensory differences that Jenn experiences.

Before we'll start I should mention that Jenn and Hanna somewhere during our talk will be referring to an article called Sensory Strangers. It is a chapter in the book Neurodiversity studies - a new critical paradigm that is published on Routledge. Hanna and Jenn are co-writers of this article. If you are interested in reading it, you may find it either in the book I mentioned or online at researchgate.
