Imagination, Social imgainaries and forgotten nonhuman partners (Ep, 5) by Younes Saramifar published on 2021-08-23T14:42:46Z We, humans, suffer from the crisis of imagination in our contemporary era because the limits of our imaginations have blinded us from the urgency of ecological break down, depth of racism, colonial past and the urgent need to change our consumption habits. This episode focuses on forgotten partners that shape our imagination and feed our reality. These forgotten partners are nonhuman elements, these elements could biotic or abiotic. They could be living organisms such as bacteria, dogs, mosquitoes, water, soil or clothes, computers, coffee beans, denims and every other objects that you may think of them. These nonhuman elements are taken for granted because our approach to life is anthropocentric which means our approach is from the perspective of humans and superiority of humans. Genre Learning
