#Metanarratives and #epistemologies are scaffolds, structures, a type of #metadata, in which #knowledge lives and breaths or suffocates or misinforms or enlightens and inspires.

Choosing our metanarratives critically, and in ways informed historically and by unpacking various forms of #power and #politics, is vital, for people, communities, institutions, countries, social justice and the #planet.

Thinking of #epistemologies before knowledge.

While both human centric + automated approaches to #AirportSecurity center the detection of 'harmful intentions', they follow different #epistemologies + #politics

All people - even children - possess rudimentary and undeveloped #epistemologies. However, only those who study some #philosophy can recognize how their own epistemologies work. And then, if they choose, they can consciously develop a different epistemology.

To be specific, epistemology is the study of the origin, nature, and limits of human knowledge.
There are a number of different epistemological systems, and we can distinguish between them.

Great to see Claire Coleman’s #book *Terra Nullius* getting some attention in the other colonies:

'Terra Nullius, while invested in confronting the legacy of #Indigenous survivance within the context of #Australian #colonialism, also provides a unique story of humanity’s confrontation with an alien invasion — one that is intellectually disorienting and stunning in its narrative emplotment'.
