Contributions from influential writers and students, resembling Dorion Sagan, Karen Barad, Donna Haraway, and Anna Lowenhaupt Tsing, are featured in addition to essays through emergent artists and cultural anthropologists.
Delectable mushrooms flourishing within the aftermath of ecological catastrophe, microbial cultures enlivening the politics and price of nutrients, and nascent existence varieties working wild within the age of biotechnology all determine during this curated choice of essays and artifacts. Recipes offer directions on the way to cook dinner acorn mush, make cheese out of human milk, and liven up forests once they were straight forward.
