Donna Haraway – Sensorium

In Donna Haraway’s essay in Sensorium (embodied experience, technology and contemporary art) she begins by remarking that “worldly embodiment is always a verb”. And that “in formation, it is ongoing, dynamic, situated, and historical”. That “its infoldings of the flesh are comprised of heterogenous partners”. To qualify she illuminates “the infolding of others to each other is what makes up the knots of what we call beings, or perhaps better , following Bruno Latour, ‘things’. Things are material, specific, non-self-identical, and semiotically active”.
