The Posthumanities Hub Webinar -- Embodied Symbiosis Across Time: Posthuman Perspectives on Human Remains, Autistic Presences, and Inhuman Futures

Beskrivning

This webinar examines the entanglement of (human and nonhuman) bodies together and with their environments across time. With our three presentations, we will discuss posthuman perspectives on symbiosis in the ‘brown humanities’, neurodiversity studies, and speculative fiction. We will examine archaeological bog research beyond the anthropocentric focus on bog bodies; explore the relationships between autistic people and their more-than-human surroundings; and engage with robot-centric narratives to provide new conceptualisations of queer inhuman matter across time.
