Environmentalism has long been a project of the rich and powerful. Here's one cut at explaining its American lineage. #worldecology

Very excited to have received my first mention in a book review. This was in Green Letters @asleuki. Big thanks to @mjstephandk and @SuneBorkfelt for all their hard work on "Interrogating Boundaries of the Nonhuman" https://t.co/ZIyQt5qU28 #envhum

Moving back and forth between Wales and Singapore every few months has me feeling like Zhuangzi and the butterfly. I'm all for nomadic subjectivity but it would be nice to get my bearings...

[Dr Owen Harry @owenharry_]

@dai_alectic Couldn't make it but spent the evening reading the book instead. Really good stuff!

[Dr Owen Harry @owenharry_]

Well, apparently I can now call myself Dr Owen Harry! 4 and a half years since first coming to Singapore to begin the PhD, I passed the dissertation defense today with no corrections needed. Super relieved and thankful to everyone who've helped me make it this far ❤️🧑‍🏫

[Dr Owen Harry @owenharry_]

Such a great keynote by Dr Rowan Williams on the need for an "imaginative revolution" to re-envision the kinds of beings we are, the relationships we have to our environments, and what else we might mean by "growth" #DecarbonisingWales @WCfPP

[Dr Owen Harry @owenharry_]

Very much enjoying the first part of this event on #DecarbonisingWales. So heartening to hear about how much work is being done towards post-carbon transition in 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

@enaie_maire Thank you Enaiê!

[Dr Owen Harry @owenharry_]

Well, this is an odd feeling... After a long, long period of writing, back and forth between Wales and Singapore, I've submitted my PhD dissertation! Now fingers crossed it passes 🤞

1. It is with great sadness that we learn the news of Bruno Latour’s passing today. He was an intellectual giant, a friend, & someone whose work inspired me greatly. A thread for those who want to know more about this extraordinary life.

[Matthias Stephan @mjstephandk]

In @owenharry_'s chapter, he argues that Powers novel can be read as counter-narrative to traditional humanist progress and suggest means by which nonhuman agency can be positioned alongside a reconceptualized human subjectivity. #posthuman #posthumanism https://t.co/QrGUPR6wSH

Many thanks to @mjstephandk and @SuneBorkfelt for bringing this #envhum collection together!

[Matthias Stephan @mjstephandk]

The 7th chapter, 'The Posthuman Return: Transformation through Stillness in Richard Powers’s The Overstory,' @owenharry_ considers the novel with Braidotti's posthuman theory to advocate stillness as a tool towards more ethical human-nonhuman connection. #envhum #climatechange
