‘the work of understanding, unlike the urge to know, requires an endless commitment to the activity of thinking; it requires one to always be ready to begin again’ … couldn’t start my sabbatical with a better book @samantharhill.bsky.social #consolationofphilosophy #thinkingsolitude

Excited to present bits of my new written material at the Laboratoire d’Anthropologie des Mondes Contemporains, Brussels. The talk will cover everything from techno-mushrooms, bombturbation, reworlded craters, to guerilla demining. #anthropology #multispecies #environment #semiotics

I’m still buzzing after #RobertGlasper gave me a high five yesterday … so much needed positive energy and good vibes in these dark times

Super excited about this conversation - Living with War Pollution Across the Globe - that will take place next week in Amsterdam. I will be speaking about the legacies of depleted uranium and the politics of ignorance and uncertainty (as a form of soft pollution)

A glimpse into Brussels’ technosphere- 2000 km of sewer pipes are underneath the city, along with rodents who apparently eat ~33% of human food waste in the sewer system that would otherwise get clogged more often … Sunday visit in the Sewer Museum #Brussels

One of the great things about living in #Brussels is that you are always just a few tram stops from the forest
