I'm exceedingly pleased to let you know that the webpage for the massive edited volume Southern Anthropocenes is up and running at www.routledge.com/Southern-Ant.... It will be out in October 2025 and if you're into STS, anthropology, and ecological/anthropocene/gaian/decolonial stuff it is for you.

Another chapter in the seemingly interminable Latour series, Anders Blok and I have written on five moments of eco-politics for the handbook of environmental political theory in the anthropocene (www.elgaronline.com/edcollchap/b...). Accessible version here: www.academia.edu/91323427/Act...

Another ongoing project is Urban Critical Zones, a volume I am co-editing with Ignacio Farias.
The critical zone is the “fragile skin of the earth” where heterogeneous flows and interactions make it possible for living organisms to thrive.

Wow, this is one of the most disgusting things I’ve ever seen make it to publication

Everyone involved in the publishing of this article should resign.

Next up the challenge of cosmopolitics in Southeast Asia. Cosmopolitics refers to the decentering and transformation of human-centered politics proposed by Isabelle Stengers and Bruno Latour and as developed in Latin American encounters by Mario Blaser and Marisol de la Cadena.

ANU staff rebel against boss Genevieve Bell’s Silicon Valley restructure
University staff say they feel demoralised by Genevieve Bell’s leadership, calling her proposed overhaul “a corporate-style raid of a national institution”.

Southern Anthropocenes. This 20+ chapter edited book with chapters from all over the place explores the changing landscape of problems, challenges, and possibilities that emerge if the macroscopic notion of the Anthropocene is replaced with Southern Anthropocenes. In process.

More gradually to follow on other projects - Southern Anthropocenes. Southeast Asian cosmopolitics. Urban critical zones. And World models.

The first of these collaborations involves Fadjar Thufail from the national research institution of Indonesia. We are in the final stages of editing a series of 10+ "engagements" (mini articles) that rethink the notion of "area" from the point of view of entanglements as theorized in STS/Anthro

Over the last few years, we've tried to build a small collective around Southeast Asian scholars working from STS/anthro perspectives broadly associated with more-than-human worlds/ontologies. Feel free to get in touch if that is your kind of thing.

I am involved with the OA journal www.natcult.net with Gergely Mohacsi and Grant Jun Otsuki. Over time, we've had contributions from great people like Marisol de la Cadena, Marilyn Strathern, Isabelle Stengers, Annemarie Mol, Kim Stanley Robinson and many others.

In Bangkok, I am at the dept of sociology and anthropology of Chulalongkorn University, working closely with Jakkrit Sangkhamanee an anthropologist of with interest in multi-species interactions and ontologies in urban settings and underwater. And with Jiraporn Laocharoenwong who works on cows!

As a quick update, my research pretty much focuses on climate/ecology, urban and infrastructure issues in Southeast Asia, working with STS, anthropology and adjacent disciplines. I am involved in several collaborative publication projects rand will provide details for those who might want follow
