Why do we invite relational entanglements with the world around us? What is an Ecological Eros, and what does it mean to queer, to eroticise, to make ecologically intregrous, love? How is death, within an ecological frame, a transition? In this Facebook live session hosted by advaya, we dive into the world of matter and desire, and rewilding mythologies, with writers Sophie Strand and Andreas Weber, curators of our courses Rewilding Mythology and Ecology of Love, respectively.

Rewilding Mythology
For most of human history, myth was a durable mode of knowledge transmission, kept alive and resilient by the breath-laced web of communal storytelling. But the rise of empire depended on the deracination of mythologies. Just as landscapes were stolen and terraformed so were whole pantheons uprooted from their social and ecological contexts. How can we reroot, rewild, and retell?
course
Ecology of Love
When we rediscover ecology as a vibrant love story, we can unlearn the violent habits of our civilisation, join this course and explore the ecology of love with biophilosopher, writer, and marine biologist Dr Andreas Weber.

What is an ecological eros?
Why do we invite relational entanglements with the world around us? What is an Ecological Eros, and what does it mean to queer, to eroticise, to make ecologically intregrous, love? How is death, within an ecological frame, a transition? In this conversation, advaya dives into the world of matter and desire, and rewilding mythologies, with writers Sophie Strand and Andreas Weber.
