Im Rahmen der Tagung “Ressource – Ereignis – Praxis. Interdisziplinäre Perspektiven auf den neuen Materialismus” hält Prof. Dr. Ian Hodder am 22. Juni einen Abendvortrag mit dem Titel “Towards a More Materialist New Materialism”.
Der Vortrag ist öffentlich, um Anmeldung mit einer Mail an reform@ressourcencampus-bochum.de wird gebeten.
Abstract:
The various contemporary trends towards posthumanism and new materiality are indeed fragmented into numerous concentrations around a variety of terms such as assemblage, Actor Networks, ontologies, relationality, symmetry, engagement, co-respondence … In this paper this fragmentation is discussed and its historical development described. Despite the diversity it is argued that many approaches are influenced by a non-radical concern with self-constitution and being/becoming rather than with the material conditions of existence. This undermines the potential contribution of archaeology to the debate and suggests the need to seek a truly new materialism.
