Donna Haraway presented her lecture as the 2003-2004 Avenali Chair in the Humanities at the Townsend Center for the Humanities, UC Berkeley. Haraway is a prominent theorist of the relationships between people and machines, and her work has incited debate in fields as varied as primatology, philosophy, and developmental biology. Haraway's The Cyborg Manifesto, first published in 1985, is now taught in undergraduate classes at countless universities and has been reprinted or translated in numerous anthologies in North America, Japan, and Europe.

This is just brilliant. Witty, deep and insightful. I'm researching second wave feminism/cyberfeminism/xenofeminism and this is a PERFECT compliment to those studies. Obviously it's a little dense and will need several passes to let it all sink in, nothing wrong with that! Thanks for the upload.

Beautiful, beautiful thought. It reflects that truth that one lives, that laugh and sprint of joy one gets out of the authentic being. All life strives towards beauty- the overman is the achievement of human beauty, it’s golden gleam. Beauty is the culmination of life, in it represents ripeness, plenitude, climax of existence. And to such moments of beauty we must all strive, until we are beautiful ourselves, like children.

What is so unique about her statements and her philosophical position that you find fascinating? Do you agree or disagree with her? but maybe I'm just distracted by all the dog talk but I dont really see how this lecture relates to cyborg anthropology at all...

What wonderful word soup this woman produces. Such a meaningful absence of form as substance takes form in lush and lustrious speech. It puts forth its meaning in words that make the reader realize that the answers are already to be found inside, if you only are willing to look harder. No doubt there is even more meaning in her words than can be separated from them just by examining them as mere words through obscuring lens of scrutiny.

@dominicmedina7432 8 жыл бұрын

I see this lecture as being embedded within/around the intersections of critical animal studies, philosophical anthropology (anthropological philosophy), genetics, dog training and breeding, cultural evolution, feminist philosophy, linguistic philosophy, metaphysics, ethology (especially symbiosis), postmodern theory, and posthumanism discourses. Brushings with deep-ecological and related literature were also minorly helpful to my own understanding of this lecture as were my encounters with Haraway's previous work that I can succinctly but imperfectly lump under technohumanism studies.

@@alliedesjardins5711 A bit late maybe; but essentially humans interacting with technology is so symbiotic and interwoven that she regards the nature/technology dichotomy as a false one - technology is merely an expression of natural (human) productivity and enhances/enables it further, so to speak. Really, in this talk she extends this understanding of the human as a cyborg further to regard all species as companion species. At least that's how I understood it. To sum it up, your prof's questions kinda suck for this video, The Cyborg Manifesto is from like '85 or sth.

Why does she keep removing her glasses and putting them on again, it's driving me madd🤣

@hagfish_ 3 жыл бұрын

she's far sighted (common when you get older). She needs the glasses to read the paper, but they make the room blurry when she looks up at the people. So to see the paper (and remind herself of what she wants to say) she puts on the glasses; to see the people shes talking to (so she can see their faces and gauge their reactions and see whats going on in the room) she need to take off the glasses.
