Providing anecdotal waypoints on the content throughout her book „Climate Change, Interrupted
Representation and the Remaking of Time,“ I found this particular excerpt by Barbara Leckie on a needed change in narrative point of view and representation to address climate change quite thought provoking
Picture of an excerpt from the book: „Climate Change, Interrupted Representation and the Remaking of Time“(Pg. 13) by Barbara Leckie. The excerpt reads out as: „Waypoints: Meanwhile. Fires crest a hill. The sky is orange. This is what whiling looks like when wildfires wild. A colleague, learning of my interest in the Amazon, recommends Eduardo Kohn's How Forests Think." I watch the fires on screens and I wonder what forests are thinking now. I wonder if the thinking is burnt out. Burn out: what happens when one fights fires, gets no sleep, makes no headway. What happens when there's not enough whiling. But also, burnout: what happens when there's not enough wilding.“
