(NON-) HUMAN | Panel Discussion

Joanna Bourke (social and cultural historian), Bogna Konior (writer, academic), Cary Wolfe (professor of English, Rice University), moderated by Lena Reitschuster

The discussion focuses on the concept of being human. The distinction between humans and non-humans is described as a social construct that maintains the idea of the human capability to create social life. However, being human is not determined by human actors alone, but also by non-human actors such as animals, plants, or machines.

This festival was organized by the ZKM | Zentrum für Kunst und Medien Karlsruhe and the Hochschule für Gestaltung Karlsruhe
