Maria Pisani from the University of Malta on ‘Becoming Sophia: A Posthuman Manifesto For Our Times’
Channel: 3CL Foundation
Date: 13/12/2022

This clip is from ‘Young People & Information: It's Complicated’, a conference organised by the 3CL Foundation on 10 and 11 November 2022, in Valletta, Malta. The event revolved around three interconnected themes: addressing media freedoms; combating mis/disinformation; and understanding online behaviour.
 
Maria Pisani from the University of Malta presents a posthuman manifesto for our times. The talk presents opposing case studies: the hospitality of a cyborg versus the rejection of an immigrant. Maria reflects on Malta’s particular brand of neoliberal cosmopolitanism, wherein the insatiable quest for profit and expansion is celebrated, and the inevitable and consequential destruction, misery and grotesque inequalities are blamed on the nonHuman human migrant.
