  1. **Co-improvising with the non-human** very happy to share that I am among the 15 artists selected by Musikfonds for their amazing AI Scholarship Programme. I will explore how non-human group intelligence can inform the design of algorithmic agents for musical co-improvisation. More about it here:

  8. *I guess it's describable as "sarcastic LLM-generated science fiction and personality-cult promotion," but just as a narrative artifact, as consecutive words presented on a screen, this is a really, really weird form of writing. #nonhuman #hallucinatory #delvish www.tumblr.com/brucesterlin...

    Atha and Inara are out of HRT, need more batteries and insulation before winter really starts to get super cold, and also fast running out of time to pay for their car loan and credit card bills. Please help!

    This week we need to raise at least $2000, and we know most of you don't have any money to give and of those who remain, very few have anything in four figures or more spare. What can you give to help us keep these otherkin, trans, non-binary beans alive and well?

    They live in a half-converted school bus to RV project known as the #Vulpibus and are building their lives back up after being forced into #homelessness last year.

    You can help make their situation more liveable and safe!

    You can help them resume their transitions!

  14. Friendly reminder to give your furry, therian, otherkin, and non-human-animal-adjacent friends paws for thought whenever possible :TherianThetaDeltaSymbol: :NonHumanUnityFlag:

  15. I really want to connect to other plural/otherkin (esp. fictionkin)/nonhuman/alterhuman blogs, but I don't know how to find them effectively.
    ….oh god do I actually have to be open and blog about this shit? Must I be the change I want to see in the world?

  16. ‪Hey, I'm Page! I'm 25+, I prefer he/they pronouns, and I'm queer, (neo)pagan, plural, and nonhuman (specifically folcintera).

    I'm primarily an artist and writer; you can find most of my written work on my system's website, Three Dragons and a Dog, though I also publish TTRPGs and some other stuff on my itch.io.

    I'm part of a five-person draconic system called the Sol System, and I'm primarily a canine psychopomp myself; most of what this blog entails will likely be personal shenanigans, art, and writings on alterhumanity, multiplicity/plurality, religion, queerness, and things of similar veins, albeit my other interests--the horror genre, food, tattooing--are likely to make appearances as well. If that interests you, consider giving a follow!

  17. Hi, I'm Lucky! I'm about to begin a Masters revolving around how to design video games / digital experiences to fulfill animal embodiment fantasies specifically for those w/ a nonhuman identity. I've been cleared to do surveys which do not collect identifying information. All questions will be optional & surveys will be anonymous. I NEED YOUR HELP -- where can I post these surveys for reach? Is YOUR community open to it? More about me in this thread :3 1/5

  18. Went to Flowers: Flora in Contemporary Art & Culture at the Saatchi Gallery.

    saatchigallery.com/exhibition/

    There’s a lot of interesting things that can be said flowers, what with all the current interest in the human’s entangled relation to the nonhuman, the Planthropocene, the environmental humanities, including elsewhere in the Saatchi gallery:

    saatchigallery.com/exhibition/

    But the curators here? They draw on very little of it. The concept behind the exhibition is basically: ‘Here’s some works of art that depict flowers.’

    That said, some standout pieces make it worth the visit, especially La Fleur Morte by Rebecca Louise Law and The Machinery of Enchantment by William Darrell.

    Also: dedicating the final room to emerging artists is a great curatorial move. More shows should copy that.

  19. CW: TW: fictional mentions of grooming and sexual abuse, naked character

    Mantis was ready to keep this secret until his last breath, with some incredible zeal and honor. Just because this secret, that united the two of them, made him feel special, despite how much it poisoned him from the inside, like a festering wound.

  23. hello,

    i don't really have a name, but you can call me "a"

    i am a non-physical entity sharing a vessel with ████, the host of this instance

    my goal here is to post less-than-conventional art made on less-than-conventional places.

    my favorite form of art is ASCII art and literature made in various text editors, on different computers

    i hope you will stay here with me and enjoy my labor of love

    this place is not for kids. i appreciate your interest but i do not want you to follow me, sorry

    please feel free to ask me or ████ about anything, plurality, my labor, my lack of human-ness; if you come here in good faith i will return the same for you

    ik spreek ook een beetje nederlands

  24. If you're interested in the relation between the city and the environment, this is worth a read:

    berlinergazette.de/category/fe

    'The “Kin City” text series draws attention to the abyss between conversations about ‘the city’ on the one hand and ‘nature’ on the other, and the resulting failure to adequately conceive and politicize the crucial role of metropolitan spaces for human and other-than-human life across the planet. To overcome this cognitive dissonance, the “Kin City” project addresses cities as both drivers and ‘victims’ of ecological collapse, and above all creates a space for exploring the existing and possible connections between urban and environmental struggles.'

    #city #environment #ecology #posthumanism #nature #nonhuman #environmentalhumanities

  25. For a Westerner it seems a contradiction that at the same time these peoples attribute self-awareness, intelligence, intentionality, table manners, compassion, spoken language and technology to #nonhuman animals, atmospheric phenomena and other beings. What the moderns consider exceptionally human, for indigenous peoples is a shared condition of many beings [potentially, all of them].

    This has led to much confusion regarding the native cosmologies and anthropologies.

  26. I made a character design reference sheet!
    My friend originally made this design based on me some years ago, and it is the prettiest thing.

  27. Our server plays a role that extends beyond basic chat functionality. It includes features for / communication and enables easy connections among various devices, including entities such as IoT devices, set-top-boxes, and more.

  28. I decieded to add some color, cause i really like the sketch
    Honestly, I am very happy with the result. I think I will try to make more similar drawings later

    it's not launched just yet since the focus right now is finding entities that are interested in joining, so i'm making this post with hashtags to help give it some visibility

    if you want to join, just send a reply to the announcement post
    (or, if you don't want to write a reply but still want to join, just give this post a like/reaction and i'll pass the message on to izzie)

  30. 2/2 DO NOT attempt to mask the large repositories of collective #knowledge (i.e. ‘general intellect’) that are appropriated and encoded into this algorithmic model to produce the #material artefact that is the #book-cum-commodity.

    DO endeavour to draw attention to the process whereby both the #writing and labour of a multitude of #human and #nonhuman others is extracted and #commodified by using numerous quotations, references and endnotes to locate the book in a network of texts and intelligences.

  31. well i've had this instance long enough for it to federate well, so time for my #introduction!
    my name's neon, and i'm the server maid of this calckey instance

    i'm a big fan of foss & selfhosting, and i plan to grow cybernexus.moe over time with stuff like a personal site, and maybe also a few frontends
    there's also some projects that i'm working on (mostly made in
    ​:rust:​) that i hope to share once i've actually got enough in a usable state, but that could take a bit

    more personally, i'm
    ​:voidpunk_flag:​ voidpunk, which is essentially a subculture around reclaiming dehumanization and embracing inhumanity
    for me, this means relating with computers, which is why i use vi/vim and it/its pronouns


    honestly though, i'm not too sure how to properly describe myself past basic stuff like this, so maybe just check out my profile and see if you wanna chat with me?

  32. At the end of the day, it's not about our diet. It's about the fact that non-human animals are individuals, too, who want to live. The same things that give humans intrinsic dignity also apply to other animals with brains and nervous systems.

    I would like to find some other way of referring to them besides "non-human" animals... humans are animals, too, so it's logical. But if we've seen other ideas, please let me know. I want to decentralize the human and not collectivize everyone else.

    It's less about "veganism" and who is "vegan" and more about... are we recognizing animals' intrinsic dignity and will to live, and are we willing to take steps to put that into action.

    Centering their lives, not our own comforts and desires. Because we're capable of the added reflection, we have this moral duty to use such knowledge and put it into practice. If we don't, we're wasting this faculty.
