Description
Michael Richardson argues that a radical rethinking of what counts as witnessing is central to building a framework for justice, suggesting that nonhuman witnessing is central to combat contemporary global crises.
“The work of Michael Richardson is like a four dimensional cartography to navigate the hyperaesthetics of our post-photographic present.”
“Foregrounding the ethical dimensions of the convergence between the fields of security and ecology, Michael Richardson explores whether witnessing is taking place beyond the boundaries of the human. By making a fantastic case for the reversal of the humanist concept of witnessing, Richardson impacts what kinds of research questions can be asked across the disciplines.”
Michael Richardson is Associate Professor of Media and Culture at the University of New South Wales, Sydney, and author of Gestures of Testimony: Torture, Trauma, and Affect in Literature.
