Inter-Species Futures

Published by DISTANZ Verlag & LAS Art Foundation

“An interspecies future is one where humankind adopts a more planetary, empathetic and inclusive approach to nonhumans, recognising our shared interdependence. Incorporating advancements in technology and science, new discoveries in nonhuman intelligence, as well as posthuman theory and Indigenous knowledge, we can usher in a new era of interspecies relations – to the benefit of all living beings.”

“Interspecies Future: A Primer is a foundational text exploring this possibility from multiple perspectives, in the form of case studies, essays, summaries of scientific research, artists’ texts and augmented reality animations. Work by artists including Jakob Kudsk Steensen, Anicka Yi, Jenna Sutela, Alexandra Daisy Ginsberg, Josèfa Ntjam, terra0, James Bridle and Tomás Saraceno is featured alongside texts from leading scientists such as Karen Bakker, Daniel Chamovitz, Mirjam Knörschild, Dorion Sagan, Tom Mustill and Kristin Andrews, as well as writings by notable philosophers Sue Donaldson, Tyson Yunkaporta, Vinciane Despret and Benjamin Bratton, among others.“
