Une école, un hôpital, une salle de spectacle, une prison… Ces bâtiments construits par les Homo sapiens ont été désertés et la nature y a repris ses droits. Ils accueillent désormais les vents, les pluies, la faune et la flore, sans résistance. À travers une série de plans fixes, Nikolaus Geyrhalter tend ces paysages vers le spectateur comme des miroirs. Libre à celui-ci d’y projeter ses fantasmes, d’imaginer le scénario qui a donné lieu à l’éclipse de ses semblables. Mais comme tout film de science-fiction, Homo Sapiens nous parle avant tout du présent.Une immersion visuelle hypnotique et intrigante, à mi-chemin entre documentaire et installation filmique, qui a fait sensation dans tous les festivals où il a été accueilli, de Berlin à la Rochelle en passant par Cinéma du Réel.

Christina McPhee's 'commonplace book' draws from a palimpsest of handwritten notes, lists, quotations, bibliographic fragments, and sketches, from an artist whose voracious reading practice is a direct feed into her life and art -- all set to a visual and textual design-as-score, as prominent writers on painting, media arts, performance, video installation and poetics engage with her 'open-work' practice. Christina McPhee's images move from within a matrix of abstraction, shadowing figures and contingent effects. The tactics of living are in subterfuge, like the dazzle ships of camouflage in war. This 'commonplace book' develops a view of recent work in collaged paintings, drawings, photomontage and video installation, around themes of environmental transformation and 'post-natural' community.

La pression que les activités humaines font peser sur le Système Terre s’accroît si vite que les sciences de la Terre annoncent l’entrée dans une nouvelle époque géologique. L’Anthropocène, Âge de l’homme, est ainsi le temps où les effets conjugués de la consommation, de la technologie et de la démographie deviennent la force géologique dominante. Mais au croisement des temps géologique et historique, le récit que propose l’Anthropocène est controversé. Sommes-nous les héros de cette nouvelle époque? Ou les bâtisseurs d’un nouvel Âge de pierre, avec une planète de plus en plus hostile et un accès raréfié aux ressources? Finalement, qui est cet homme que mettent en scène les discours sur l’Anthropocène? En montrant que nous arrivons au terme d’un long parcours, celui de la modernité, cet ouvrage ouvre une réflexion philosophique sur un monde où l’entrelacs nature-société est devenu inextricable.

The belief that »Nature« exists as a blank, stable stage upon which humans act out tragic performances of international relations is no longer tenable. In a world defined by human action, we must reorient our understanding of ourselves, of our environment, and our security. This book considers how decentred and reflexive approaches to security are required to cope with the Anthropocene - the Human Age. Drawing from various disciplines, this bold reinterpretation explores the possibilities for understanding and preparing a future that will look vastly different than the past. The book asks to dig deeper into what it means to be human and secure in an age of ecological exception. "In a growing field of interdisciplinary work on the Anthropocene, ›Security in the Anthropocene‹ sets itself apart. It blends ideas from criminology, international security studies and the environmental humanities to provide unique interdisciplinary insight into the challenges of living on an increasingly turbulent earth." - Audra Mitchell, Balsillie School of International Affairs/Wilfrid Laurier University "This essential, groundbreaking book offers a new conceptual framework that recalibrates what security means in the Anthropocene. Not content on simply highlighting the state of crisis fostered by existential risks in this new era, Cameron Harrington and Clifford Shearing invite us to imagine a more positive and caring form of security." - Benoit Dupont, University of Montreal "Harrington and Shearing's fine book explores evocatively how humans might cope with a world that is fundamentally changed through a critical appraisal of how new impacts on the Earth system shift the conditions of security. This is a tour de force of how our concepts of security create the world that afflicts us. The authors argue, convincingly, that there can be no security in the Anthropocene without an expanded vision of care." - John Braithwaite, Australian National University »This passionate and extremely well written volume should be read by all of us interested in such questions. It cannot provide a clearly formulated set of policy solutions, but it very effectively begins the necessary and urgent task of focusing our collective attention on how to rethink security in the Anthropocene.« Simon Dalby, ACUNS, 09.01.2018

Debunking myths behind what is known collectively as the new cosmology-a grand, overlapping set of narratives that claim to bring science and spirituality together-Lisa H. Sideris offers a searing critique of the movement's anthropocentric vision of the world. In Consecrating Science, Sideris argues that instead of cultivating an ethic of respect for nature, the new cosmology encourages human arrogance, uncritical reverence for science, and indifference to nonhuman life. Exploring moral sensibilities rooted in experience of the natural world, Sideris shows how a sense of wonder can foster environmental attitudes that will protect our planet from ecological collapse for years to come.
