From Risk-Averse to Opportunity-Led Ethics: Renegotiating Institutional Ethical Guidelines for Co-Creative Types of Research
Institutional review boards (IRBs) set ethical standards for research conduct, thereby contributing to a coherent framework for responsible research practice. However, their current focus on risk reduction has proven to be challenging for many researchers working in co-creative research where participants become co-researchers and play an active role in shaping, challenging, or controlling the research process. In this article, we identify challe…
Speculating-with Other-than-Humans in Multispecies Climate Fiction: Canopy of the Hidden Alley
This article explores multispecies climate fiction as a mode of inquiry that speculates-with other-than-humans. To explore cli-fi’s potential in research, I position speculative fiction in the field of research-creation, a praxis that combines artistic exploration with scholarly inquiry. Adopting a research-creation approach, I wrote the multispecies cli-fi story Canopy of the Hidden Alley . The story emerged from the Multispecies City Lab projec…
The Body as a Tool for Demanding Climate Action and Justice
The escalating frequency and intensity of natural disasters underscore the urgency of the climate crisis. Against this backdrop, the global climate movement has surged, amplifying awareness of the climate emergency and pressuring governments and corporations to take decisive climate action. In climate manifestations, activists are increasingly using their entire body for/in climate activism, with Extinction Rebellion activists barricading drivewa…
Co-Designing Multispecies Speculations Through Biofuturing
Amid growing environmental concerns, there is an increasing demand for creative research approaches that address impending crises while simultaneously imagining sustainable modes for humans to coexist with nature. In response, we introduce the concept/practice of "biofuturing," a creative research approach concerned with the co-design of multispecies speculations of worlds to come. We engaged 21 scholars in a 3-day biofuturing event, combining a …
Co‐Creatively Producing Knowledge With Other‐Than‐Human Organisms in a (Bio)Technology‐Controlled Artistic Environment
Along with the increasing awareness about the destructive force of humankind on nature, existential questions about how to create a more sustainable relationship with the natural world have emerged. To acquire a more eco‐friendly attitude, we need to go beyond the well‐established knowledge cultures that highlight a nature versus culture dichotomy. This study focuses on bio art as an epistemic vehicle to re‐imagine our understanding of and connec…
