My current #artproject on #Behance deals with the #philosophically and #epistemologically interesting #question of how an alien, who has met #mankind on #earth, would describe these #humans to another alien, who has never seen them before . But the descriptions of the #humanityknowing alien don't seem entirely convincing to the other alien.

“If we lived in a #culture with a higher tolerance for ambiguity, rather than obsession with measurement, fixed #identity, and #knowability, transition wouldn’t be so confounding to #people, and the process might be more normal. #Epistemologically, we are anal retentive. Not rigorous, just stressed out. We need to know what a trans #girl is. What are you, #trans people get asked. Where are you from, #people of colour get asked. White #supremacist #capitalism wants to make a #map of #everything, and then #monetize the ways that things move around the #map. Basically literally. The #museum.”
