Rosi Braidotti, “Posthuman Knowledge”

- This lecture is built on the assumption that we are currently situated in a posthuman convergence between the Fourth industrial Age and the Sixth Extinction, between and advanced knowledge economy, which perpetuates patterns of discrimination and exclusion, and the threat of climate change devastation for both human and non-human entities. This convergence calls for a posthuman critical intervention in the form of intersecting critiques of western humanism on the one hand and of anthropocentrism on the other. The lecture discusses the impact of this convergence upon three major areas: the constitution of our subjectivity; the general production of knowledge and the practice of the academic Humanities. It addresses directly the following questions: what are the implications of the fact that knowledge production is no longer the prerogative of academic or formal scientific institutions like the university ? What are we to make of the sudden growth of new trans-discipinary hubs that call themselves: the Environmental and Digital Humanities, the Medical, Neural and Bio-Humanities, and also the Public, Civic and Global Humanities and so on ?
The lecture offers both a genealogy of these Critical Posthumanities and a theoretical framework by which to assess them.
More information about Braidotti's forthcoming book, Posthuman Knowledge can be found on the publisher's website.

I am going to present a paper on Posthumanism and this lecture made me confident about my recent readings. Energy personified.
That cheeky 'Harvard' that Braidotti said after cognitive capitalism.
impenetrable passion, eloquent, expressive, love the spirit
How do you penetrate passion ?
@@heartyhaha how do you?
I was just reading The Posthuman and was not really being able to connect with its excitement because I've been drown into "posthuman melancholia" lately, but watching her speak changes everything haha
Any books / videos that particularly pushed you into posthuman mealncholia? Curious what you found most impacting
instablaster...
Rosi is always so intensive and invigorating. Thank you for the uploaded.
Entertaining Brilliance, My Rosi. Warm hug from Indonesia. Your voice sound similar with Vandana Shiva. Dreaming of you both talking in the same event..
With that energy she could start a revolution, If only she spoke german.
Nice Video! You and your videos encouraged me to create a channel, do what I love, and help people save their best gift, THEIR TIME. Thank you!
Well. Rosi nails the attention into a joyful focus, and what a wealth of notions, concepts. I need to see this again.
wealth of notions lmao
so smart and thoughtful but at the same time funny and ironic, simply great.
Thank you, brothers!
Nicely explained. Thank you! My professor did a podcast that I couldn't follow at all.
I have trouble telling when she’s being deadpan funny or genuine, specifically writing this as she’s talking up synthetic meat.
Oh, dear Lord, that's the woman I want to become when I finally grow up.
This is a real healer.
This is excellent- I'm trying to find a transcript because reading along, need to be at half speed as a deaf person! Anyone got a link? I'm still looking!
Looked for a transcript as well, couldn't find one! Would love to know if one exists...
Great! I love her and her knowledge!
Minuto 54 se habla de poblaciones que han sido mermadas por la violencia colonial. En Venezuela los pueblos originarios han sido devastados por la violencia decolonial y minera. Me parece que la depredación no tiene ideología, cualquiera la ejerce si puede.
para entender, qué sería violencia decolonial minera?
Starts at 3:58
ve evet bu konuşma final ödevim için oldukça yüksek bir önem arz etmekte teşekkürler Harvard Üniversitesii
Tüm gaünü yorumlarda görmeyi umuyordum ama sadece bir kişi varmış 😂😂umarım iyi bir not alırsın

What's with gin and tonic? Mentioned twice...
...and how is Damasio relevant here??
Lmfao. Clinically insane.
it is like a respiration this conference...
For the record English is not my mother tongue but I will start to work with it
Fair enough as a human being and hot engine. Lol just kidding but not. Schwer da alles zu übersetzen /überleben /überschreiben / und greetings and grizzly bear hug ❤
Before making grand statements with big words, why don't you rather start at the beginning and explain how the poor child in the garbage is actually a bad thing in your worldview? Or are you just borrowing moral values from other worldviews for emotional manipulation?
Vac-scene ? 😆
luv u and gin and tonic
She’s funny!
Thank you for uploading this.
I have started my PhD journey on Posthumanism and Posthumanity in 2022. I am trying to understand and explain 'Posthuman Subalternity', a phenomenon I feel because of the posthumanization proposed by the transhumanists and already existant because of hyper capitalism, through the lens of literary specimens. This lecture contains many key points around which I am building my thesis. My heartfelt gratitude and love towards Professor Rosi Braidotti. She is my first guiding angel into posthumanism.
I am also working on posthumanism.Please share your contact details.
great lecture!
Breath-taking lecture by Braidotti.
Professing themselves to be wise, became fools
AMAZIMG
excellent lecture. thanks for the good audio and image, gsd.
Woah I see what true knowledge looks like.
This is one must watch.
High-school level thinking.
I have never understood why contemporary philosophy rejects universality on the basis that universality has never been truly universal. Why don't try to make it truly universal? Why should we renounce to humanity instead of revealing its true purpose? Just because we haven't been able to truly include everyone under the "human" doesn't mean it doesn't work. Social justices works on the basis on recognizing the other as equal and that only happens if we can defend an universal concept laying beyond each particular perspective.
So many words, so little meaning. I'm gonna ask current AI tech to give me a short summary of this and waste my time somewhere else.
It is currently one of the most beautiful and important speeches you could listen to as a human being
Marx has much more to offer than Rosi seems to think. Especially on the point of imagining different forms of economy/markets. By the end, she did sound like a marxist, though apparently without realizing this herself. Overall, not convincing and not radical enough - e.g., that she thinks capitalism is not breaking but bending is so ironic ad so myopic. A total lack of reflection by someone extremely privileged, to my mind. What would you say now, Rosi - after the pandemics and the total collapse of so much around us? Still not seeing that capitalism is indeed breaking?
The rich got richer during the pandemic. The markets have not been exhausted. Capitalism is alive and well. Perhaps she had a point?
@@genathing903 on life support, ventilation machine and all - at best. Visit Latin America, India etc, where the MAJORITY of people live, behind gated communities of europe and north america... see for yourself. Not that things are fine behind the gates either...
Capitalism is evolving. To say it is “breaking” is to misunderstand what is happening around you.
@@berlg.3382 Good luck with this.
@@excitingworld364 I’m not for it. Just stating the facts. For some terminology, it is called “stakeholder capitalism”..the evolution of industrial era “free market capitalism”.. same neoliberal foundations, just an evolution in methodology. A mere changing of wardrobe, yet still capitalizes on the useless eater.
the "human" is a nuetral term, if one has better things to do in life. These well endowed geezers do not make an iota of difference to 99.99% people of the world...
Man is the embodied breath of Life, triune unity of Body Word Spirit.
she remains clueless how the poorest women live, in countries far far away from this institutional "hope and hoopla"
Naive on the University, ontologically poor.
Her criticism towards the humanists was not justified at all. She provided no valid reasons to prove them wrong but rather excoriated them. The definition of the term posthuman itself is as vague as a utopian idealistic stance. If there's no distinction between nature and culture or man and woman and living and non-living, then to evolve into a posthuman what are the variables that come into play? To become posthuman, one has to make use of what's accessible. So how it's going to solve the problem that humanism and anthropocentrism have caused?
Well said. It seems posthumanism sets humanity up to be easily subsumed by the transhumanist singularity precisely by its deconstruction of boundaries, meaning, purpose, and virtue that humanism had built. Posthumanism results in human slavery to systems theory-based ai algorithmic management. It’s amazing how naive these types come off. Their idealism serves little purpose outside of self-destruction.
@@berlg.3382 I agree and they don't have any idea how to achieve such utopian objectives they set. Her book, The Posthuman, is filled with preposterous ideas which contradict one another and are just a blatant push toward transhumanist projects which exploit nature, humans, and their resources more than they claim humanists have exploited.
" The definition of the term posthuman itself is as vague as a utopian idealistic stance." exactly, she noted that humanism derives it's own critiques
I guess that your questions are exactly what she's inviting us to think about (although you'r concerns seem to come from a total different genealogy than hers...)
Gobbledygook.
She's out of her mind.
Hyper neurotic with idealism and detached life experience to boot.
Fluff and nonsense - jargon not knowledge
Great argumentation to prove your point, man! Awesome! I'm totally convinced!
As someone that disagrees with the ideology she does make some good points.
e pensare che questa qua dovrebbe formare i giovani con le sue tesi confuse
cope and seethe
That doesn’t make sense. She’s just observing that humanism takes the concept of “human” for granted. And she’s deconstructing humanism from that perspective. She’s a philosopher. And as such. Uses philosophical language. It’s specialized language. But all disciplines have jargon in that regard. But how precisely do you dismiss what she is saying?
