Summary:
This volume offers a conversation between Indigenous Peoples of two regions in this time of political and environmental upheaval. Both regions are environmentally sensitive areas that have become hot spots in the debates circling around climate change and have long been contact zones between Indigenous Peoples and outsiders — zones of meeting and clashing, of contradictions and entanglement. Opening with an Epistolary Exchange between the editors,the book then widens to include essays by 12 Indigenous artists, curators, and knowledge-keepers about the integration of spirituality, ancestral respect, traditional knowledges, and political critique in artistic practice and more than 100 image reproductions and installation shots. The result is an extraordinary conversation about life, artistic practise, and geopolitical realities faced by Indigenous peoples in regions at risk.

A hook echo is a radar signature for the part of a supercell tornado wherein the clouds come together with maximum force. Its name derives from the hook-shaped formation with which it shows up on a weather radar. In 1974 a supercell tornado hit the city of Xenia, Ohio (US), demolishing around 1400 buildings. This publication juxtaposes two sequences made of found(...)

Summary:
A hook echo is a radar signature for the part of a supercell tornado wherein the clouds come together with maximum force. Its name derives from the hook-shaped formation with which it shows up on a weather radar. In 1974 a supercell tornado hit the city of Xenia, Ohio (US), demolishing around 1400 buildings. This publication juxtaposes two sequences made of found collections: a set of 48 photographs that capture the aftermath of the Ohio tornado, and 22 pages from an album of compiled crochet samples. In this new context, the images relate to each other as a series of structures that become physical matter, accumulations of material. HOOK ECHO is the first installment of DRAGNET, an ongoing series informed by existing sets of images: archives, collections, unseen documents, or works in progress. Each DRAGNET publication is printed in a limited edition and contains an original print.

Summary:
Cet ouvrage propose de construire une histoire animale de Paris en articulant deux principaux objectifs. D’une part, il s’agit de rendre visibles le rôle et la place des bêtes dans l’histoire de la ville et de révéler que ce sont aussi les vaches, les mésanges, les loups, les fouines, les faucons, les girafes, les chevaux, les brochets et les cerfs qui ont fait le Paris d’aujourd’hui. Alors que les animaux ont longtemps été effacés ou minorés des récits dominants, l’histoire que nous campons tente de mettre en lumière ce que la présence animale a généré dans la capitale. D’autre part, en menant cette enquête sur le temps long, en observant les lieux de partage entre l’humain et l’animal, qu’ils soient l’expression de tension, de collaboration ou de domination, il s’agit de dégager des indices pour imaginer ce que pourrait être un Paris à même de créer une altérité avec l’animal ; pour reprendre les mots de la philosophe Donna Haraway : « Nous devons apprendre ainsi, au coeur d’un présent épais, à bien vivre et à bien mourir, ensemble. »

Summary:
This book is a chain of inspiration that involves 111 architects from around the world. How does inspiration move through the atmosphere? How do we inspire each other? And how does creative inspiration itself change through each person’s unique experience? To find out, Anna Bates initiated an experiment in 2017, tasking one architect to use a painting by Theo van Doesburg as a stimulus for creating their own work. This would then be passed on to other architects, who in turn would draw inspiration for their new work, and so on, growing into a web of conversation, interplay, and inspiration. Gary Bates of Space Group was invited to create the first work.

Summary:
Au tournant des XVIIIe et XIXe siècles, des sphères jusqu’alors exclues de la politique, comme la santé, la sexualité ou la natalité, sont investies par de nouveaux processus de pouvoir : c’est le début de la biopolitique. Forgé par Michel Foucalt dans les années 1970, ce concept essaime désormais dans toutes les sciences sociales et donne lieu à de multiples interprétations.Thomas Lemke en retrace l’histoire et discute les travaux d’auteurs et autrices incontournables. Ce livre constitue une introduction claire et rigoureuse à une notion féconde pour comprendre notre temps : les épidémies, le changement climatique, les avancées biotechnologiques, ou encore les pratiques de résistance centrées sur la vie et le corps, suggèrent que la biopolitique est promise à un long avenir.

Le retour du loup interroge notre capacité à coexister avec la biodiversité qui nous fonde – à inventer de nouvelles formes de diplomatie. Guidé par Charles Darwin, Konrad Lorenz, Temple Grandin, Lucy King… et de nombreux·ses autres « diplomates », ce livre esquisse un monde où nous vivrons « en bonne intelligence avec ce qui, en nous et hors de nous, ne veut pas être domestiqué ».
