The Body Societal

Are you interested in STS, agriculture, and biodiversity? Then please submit an abstract to the panel I am organising with @Plagerw titled “(Un)making biodiversity in agricultural infrastructures” at the @STSeasst in Amsterdam next summer. nomadit.co.uk/conference/eas…

François Thoreau était l'invité des Éclaireurs pour discuter des enjeux de la génomique pour la sélection et la reproduction des bovins. À écouter en ligne : auvio.rtbf.be/media/podcast-… #genomics #livestock #environmentalhumanities #biotech #biopolitics

Last week @ELMajesticTOTO, Simon Vanderstraeten and @bal_jenske at STS Swiss, Basel! They presented about how the genomic infrastructure, as a translation machine between materiality and abstraction, allows and asks for more flexibility of the cows and their selection

Last week, our post-doc @DanieLaforgue7 has presented his research on #fascism, #cattle, #genetics, and #zootechnics at the #eseh23 conference in #Bern. Great turnaround and a great discussion with panelists @stefaniagallini #benedettapiazzesi and #robertabiasillo @esehtweets

I will be working this into some other publications but for now, it is done! And for those of you who have heard me rambling about cows in the city... you can officially see what I have been up to! qspace.library.queensu.ca/handle/1974/31…

Ferality, commensality, the infrastructures that makes and remakes cities and what Maan calls « the urban in a minor key » 😍 and of course, there are cows all around the place 😜

It's tomorrow!

Rebooting of the Belgian STS community 😍

@bal_jenske has put together a super nice workshop on infrastructures of farming and eating with @ElseVogel and @ElinevanOosten 😍😍😍

Awesome release on the notion of plantationocene! Check it out ;

Excited to be presenting this Thursday on the shifting configurations of 'good digestion' in Dutch dairy farming at this exciting workshop of the @UEcologies and @TheBodySocietal projects in Cambridge. @maanbarua @rebecaibanezm @ElinevanOosten and others #metabolism #multispecies

@sheinalew And love it all at once, right? 😅

Oh god I hate writing so much

Awesome exhibit, strongly advised #ESOCITE4S22

Now in panel 192, Lucas Bechoux adresses the pharmaceutization of the Belgian state through infrastructure and logistics. Utterly brilliant #ESOCITE4S2022

Awesome making & doing performance! With colleagues from spiral 🌀 @uliege, attending #ESOCITE4S2022

@Pauline_CP You mean are cowming soon?

If you want to learn more about re/mediation stories of cows and genomic infrastructure, follow our research project @TheBodySocietal. Many more cow-existences stories are coming soon🐄🐂🧬🔬🌾

@admsrl talks about burps and farts, fortunately not at the making and doing session. How are cows enrolled in climate remediation? #ESOCITE4S22

@Roxane_Gabet discusses the modes of existence of heat resistant cows #ESOCITE4S2022 🔥

Nina Ferrante is not trapped in the body of a cow #ESOCITE4S22
