Postumano Metamorfico
Album
Description
Several present-day thinkers take as a given a dichotomy in contemporary reality, and register an increasingly evident divergence between an anthropocentric will to power directed towards a superhuman, hyperhuman, or transhuman condition, and a wish to attain greater awareness of the limits and finitude which can be ascribed to the Posthuman as a bearer of new ethical, environmental, and social values and, at the same time, a filter and tool to connect again – as bodies, as organisms among other organisms – with nature. The metamorphic posthuman we would like to see in our near future will be able to interact with their macrocosm of reference by imagining other forms of coexistence and transformation, thus creating new conditions of existence which are alternative to those we are accustomed to today.
