Problematic assumptions which see humans as special and easily
defined as standing apart from animals, plants, and microbiota,
both consciously and unconsciously underpin scientific
investigation, arts practice, curation, education, and research
across the social sciences and humanities. This is the case
particularly in those traditions emerging from European and
Enlightenment philosophies. Posthumanism disrupts these traditional
humanist outlooks and interrogates their profound shaping of how we
see ourselves, our place in the world, and our role in its
protection. In Posthumanism in Practice, artists, researchers,
educators, and curators set out how they have developed and
responded to posthumanist ideas across their work in the arts,
sciences, and humanities, and provide examples and insights to
support the exploration of posthumanism in how we can think,
create, and live. In capturing these ideas, Posthumanism in
Practice shows how posthumanist thought can move beyond theory,
inform action, and produce new artefacts, effects, and methods that
are more relevant and more useful for the incoming realities for
all life in the 21st century.
