A great team of colleagues at the University of Bonn in Germany has put together this intriguing call for papers on “Posthuman Ecofeminism.”
This workshop in October 2025 is set out to explore posthuman ecofeminism as a new way of thinking, especially through the transdisciplinary perspectives of ecofeminism in contemporary art, literature, and curatorial practice.
Make no mistake: the organizers do not explicitly address sound studies or sensory studies, but many of our colleagues in sound studies are working on some of these same questions the organizers raise:
“What strategies do artists, writers and collectives use to relate to the intersectionality of posthuman ecofeminism?”
“What perspectives of a posthuman ecofeminism have become effective in our post-pandemic present, and to what extent has the pandemic made ‘global frontlines of care’ (Krasny 2023) visible?”
“What alternative forms of writing, publishing and curating that take up ecofeminist critique of power and posthuman thinking can be developed from this?”
“How can modern and contemporary art, literature and aesthetics be understood anew through the combination of ecofeminism and posthumanism?”
So:
Why not give it a try and share more sound scholarship all across the borderlines of academic disciplines?
