Acknowledgements

We are grateful to the board of Interacting Minds Centre (IMC), Aarhus University, and to IMC director Christine Parsons for seed funding that made possible the project ‘The Creative Potential of Evolving Constraints in Peer-to-Peer Reciprocal Coaching: A Three-Way Investigation’. Thanks again to Christine and to IMC administrator Ane Sønderskov Thomsen for facilitating discussion of the project at an IMC seminar. Thanks also to the staff of Horsens public library for the use of the library meeting rooms, and for their helpfulness and welcome. We gratefully acknowledge the invaluable advice of project advisor Michael Mose Biskjaer (Aarhus), as well as the useful guidance provided by JAR editors and peer reviewers, and Barbara Zecchi (UMass Amherst), who generously commented on a late draft. Thank you to Mette Terp Høybye, Kirsten Hallager, and Niels Andersen for their support. And, finally, special thanks to Lisa and Molly.

Copyright statement

The film materials we draw on in section two and section six are used in accordance with fair use principles for non-commercial, critical, and research purposes, as set out in Mittell 2019b and in the section on exceptions in the Learning On Screen resource, ‘Copyright Considerations for Video Essays’. This understanding of re-use in found footage and essay filmmaking is now established by more than a decade of international practice, and several peer-reviewed journals now publish video essays, including [in]Transition, where the finished version of ‘Men Shouting: A History in 7 Episodes’ (O’Leary 2023), discussed in section six, has been published. The use of clips from The Five Obstructions in section two fall under the exception for illustration for instruction purposes; it is believed that the clips demonstrate the points more effectively than prose description.
