During my PhD, I developed a program to construct (taut) foliations from pairs of (tight) contact structures, providing a converse to Eliashberg--Thurston's celebrated approximation theorem. While this technology works well at producing new taut foliations near old ones, I will present some failed attempts at using these tools to construct many more taut foliations. I will discuss the subtleties and obstructions in more detail in my subsequent talk in the 'Getting dirty with foliations' seminar.
