Compost Reader 2 – Institute for Postnatural Studies

The second volume of ‘Compost Reader’ continues to espouse its vision of the world as an interconnected being, where all parts relate to one another. The act of composting becomes our new relational ontology. Composting is seen as a way of cultivating consciousness through questions instead of answers, and from uncertainty and doubt. Hydro-memories, a talking lion, sounds that live in a snail shell, a dry swamp, a herbal medicine witch girl, ephemeral queer performances, chemical-sensing tentacles, stone eaters, scriptures-fossil, dolphins in traffic, blue humanities, and digital forensic public spaces are just some of the matters fermenting in this book.
