Katz Distinguished Lecture: Anna Tsing, “Feral Atlas and the More-than-Human Anthropocene”
February 25, 7:00 – 8:00 PM| Kane Hall
Humans have been unable to make the Anthropocene by ourselves. Indeed, the Anthropocene is a series of 鈥渇eral鈥� ecologies鈥攅cosystems that have been encouraged by human infrastructures (such as dams, drilling rigs, and industrial parks), but which develop and spread beyond human control. Bringing together a hundred scientists, humanists, and artists, the Feral Atlas studies these ecologies and how they鈥檝e changed the conditions for how humans interact with each other and with nonhuman others, whether biological, technological, or ephemeral.听 Drawing on her collaborative and interdisciplinary work curating the Feral Atlas, Anna Tsing鈥檚 lecture will explore how digital visualization and storytelling might create a new community of resisters in this more-than-human Anthropocene.
