Heel mooi en passend dat de Erasmusprijs 2025 is toegekend aan de Amerikaanse zoöloge, filosofe en wetenschapshistorica Donna Haraway (1944).Thema dit jaar: 'de wetenschap van wat ons bindt'.
Haraway onderzocht (en doorbrak) in haar werk diepgewortelde dualismen en grenzen, zoals die tussen man en vrouw, mens en machine, cultuur en natuur en mens en niet-mens.

Mooie aansporing van bioloog en filosoof Donna Haraway: „Wees hier. Wees werkelijk aanwezig in deze wereld en met wat daarin aan de hand is. Zie de sociale onrechtvaardigheid, zie het verlies aan biodiversiteit. Vlucht niet in het idee dat de wetenschap wel met een oplossing zal komen, of dat een of andere technofix ons net op tijd zal gaan redden. En zit ook niet bij de pakken neer. Zorg simpelweg voor elkaar. Dat is de klus.” #DonnaHaraway #StayingwiththeTrouble

E.26 SCALPED w J David Osborne + Cool is a Virtue.

Therapy, rapidly changing social norms, the endless nuance in good crime stories, the difference between realizing you're on the ride and actually grabbing the wheel, JDO/411, Alex Jones, real spirit stories, the supposed death of the innocent question, and more cool stuff I can't remember right now! Such a blast and a joy.

“It matters what ideas we use to think other ideas.” I #compost my soul in this hot pile. The #worms are not human; their undulating bodies ingest and reach, and their feces fertilize worlds. Their tentacles make string figures. It matters what thoughts think thoughts. It matters what knowledges know knowledges. It matters what relations relate relations. It matters what worlds world worlds. It matters what stories tell stories. #stayingwiththetrouble #quarantine #DonnaHaraway

Terrapolis is a fictional integral equation, a speculative fabulation. Terrapolis is n-dimensional niche space for multispecies becomingwith. Terrapolis is open, worldly, indeterminate, and polytemporal. Terrapolis is a chimera of materials, languages, histories. Terrapolis is for companion species, cum panis, with bread, at table together—not “posthuman” but “com-post.”

The unfinished #Chthulucene must collect up the trash of the Anthropocene, the exterminism of the #Capitalocene, and chipping and shredding and layering like a mad gardener, make a much hotter #compost pile for still possible pasts, presents, and futures. #stayingwiththetrouble #quarantine #DonnaHaraway

#Stayingwiththetrouble requires making oddkin; that is, we require each other in unexpected collaborations and combinations, in hot compost piles. We become-with each other or not at all. #DonnaHaraway #quarantine
