This paper proposes the notion of posthuman gesture as a conceptual framework for approaching the increasingly complex notions of agency within digital instrumental system design and performance. Posthuman gesture is a synthesis of Barad's notion of posthuman performativity and current research of gesture in musical and digital instrument design ...

This article asks what part prehistory could play in establishing a posthumanist settlement, alternative to the humanism of the Enlightenment. We begin by showing how Enlightenment thinking split the concept of the human in two, into species and condition, establishing a point of origin where the history of civilization rises from its baseline in ...

Posthuman Research is a performative project asking about the identity of a woman as a techno-object. The video performance consists of two videos with a large correlation of meanings. A cyborg-like female object without a face is asking Google Translator about her identity, wondering when and where it got lost in the network.

Abstract Posthuman figures exist in literature but not in the real world, making it a seemingly odd subject for realism. Realism as a style has, on the other hand, played a significant role in speculative fiction that ranges from science fiction to a range of canonical works in European ...

Ferne Merrylees analyzes Julianna Baggott’s Pure and Marissa Meyer’s Cinder, concluding that both protagonists must accept their posthuman bodies, being organic and inorganic hybrids. Once Pressia and Cinder learn that embracing their Otherness makes them strong, they can move more freely in their dystopian worlds.

Abstract Several distinct strains of posthumanist discourse have pointed beyond twentieth-century humanisms, but their project of alienating the human in a transhuman or transspecies commons remains elusive. Human music can aid in this project, if we gauge it against nonhuman communicative means that we habitually describe as “music” or “

Posthumanism, simply put, shifts the focus of research and politics away from humans; like Chakrabarty’s (2000) call to ‘provincialize Europe’, it pushes humans to the margins. The challenges posed by human destructiveness, environmental degradation, climate change, population growth, resource scarcity, urbanization, diminishing resources, our ...
