- Summary:
- Broglio (English and sustainability, Arizona State U.) ponders what it is to be an animal, not as observed from outside, but as the animal itself. The question of embodying another is one of the most persistent in philosophy, he says. His topics include meat matters: distance in Damien Hirst, making space for animal dwelling: worlding with Snaebjonsdottir/Wilson, and a minor art: becoming-animal of Marcus Coates.
