Lexicon for Animacy (A Critical/Creative volume)
CFP: Lexicon for Animacy (A Critical/Creative volume)
We are in an age that demands we redefine what it means to be human, that we tell different stories about the human place in the world, reimagine what is possible for us as a species – and many humans feel this need acutely. There is a growing desire to address human entanglement in the academy in the Posthuman turn, in critical animal studies, multispecies kinship studies, and the rise of two-eyed seeing in the sciences and ...

Call for Chapter Proposals: Sky Imaginaries in Latin American Literature, Film, and Art
Latin American skies are at the crossroads of multiple cultural, scientific, historical, and political tensions. Technologies of astronomical observation continue to expand in the Atacama Desert.

Future Library: Critical Approaches to an Unseen Archive
Future Library (2014-2114, https://www.futurelibrary.no/), a public artwork conceived by Scottish artist Katie Paterson and supported by the City of Oslo, Norway, spans a century and comprises multiple sites.
