Post-Human anthropology of the senses: An attempt to disentangle Tokyo’s localities from jumbled line(s), split screens, and (dis-)connections

Beschreibung

“To reground the anthropology of the senses, our first priority must be to restore the virtual worlds of sense to the practicalities of our sensing of the world”
(Ingold 2011, 317).
Perception shapes and limits the possibilities of human beings and societies. Albeit not only humans and animals, but also machines/apparatuses, whole biomes and in particular viruses are limited by their possibilities of perception and interaction. These actors and their influence on the social (but not necessarily human) construction of the world we live in, have become strikingly obvious since March 2020. But how can we research such a complex interdependent phenomenon?
