«Our expedition was the first to enter Area X for more than two years, and much of our predecessors’ equipment had rusted, their tents and sheds little more than husks. Looking out over that untroubled landscape, I do not believe any of us could yet see the threat.»
Jeff Vandermeer, Annihilation (2014)
«I insist, once again: such intricate links between humans and non humans in complex cosmograms have been described in every single ethnographic monograph but always with the risk of being seen as only “symbolic”. Now it is literal. And that transforms everything, because it means that all field studies are studying devastated sites in crisis. To be on planet Earth at the time of the Anthropocene is not the same thing as being “in nature” at the time of its modernization. Cosmopolitics is now the common situation for all collectives. There is no common world, and yet it has to be composed, nonetheless.»
Bruno Latour, Anthropology at the Time of the Anthropocene - a personal view of what is to be studied (2014)
