- Abstract
- Multispecies ethnographers analyzed the expansion of industrialized food production as separating organisms from their relational ecologies and coercing them into maximized production. Under late capitalism's growth imperative, agriculture has moved towards accelerating organisms' growth by removing them from their environment into controlled feeding and medication. This process not only shapes non-human bodies but, according to situated knowledges among many different local populations, it also creates nutritionally and symbolically poor foods, depleting human bodies and the very mutuality of eating that constitutes a local ecology. Yet, these ecologies are sustained by these webs of multispecies relations. Looking at an ever-gloomier Capitalocene, we recognize the urgency of discussing more-than-human freedom and its capacity to shape and sustain local ecologies. This zine conference employs visual ethnographies to show the mutuality between more-than-human freedom and the sustenance of bodies, species, and local ecologies, thus disseminating cutting-edge research on more-than-human freedom to both a specialistic and a lay public. Our intention is to democratize such knowledges in a low-carbon, free, and accessible frame, tapping into the graphic and experimental potential of zines.
