あらすじ・解説
Yes, the Other-Than-Humans that we share the world with are always acting on us! In fact, it seems that our connection to our own lives arises out of how we are affected by our environment. "Affective participation is what connects us to the world...without affect there is no connection" says researcher Dr. Lena Gan, who shares her insights on how entangled we are with all of the elements in our environment, and how affected we are (or could be!) by the plants, animals, and things that we share our lives with. In this conversation with Dr. Gan and wonder researcher David Mattson, we discuss the potential for affective encounters with the other-than-humans in our lives on the levels of both personal well-being and societal change; how the perception of the flow of time and how (and what) we remember can change when we engage in this way of dialoging with our environment; and some practices for encouraging more personal availability for affective encounters in every day life.
