This podcast is about objects, but more importantly, it is about some of
the recent theories that offer new conceptualisations of objects in
contemporary philosophy and art. This first episode features philosophers
Graham Harman and Luciana Parisi. Harman's object-oriented ontology opposes
Kant's anthropocentrism and the scientistic standpoint, in defence of a
radically broad notion of objecthood; while Parisi looks at the relations
between things and data, between macrophysical objects (or blobjects, as
Karim Rashid called them) and the algorithms that create them.

*OBJECTHOOD #2. Featuring interviews with Florian Hecker and Erick Beltrán*

Curated by Roc Jiménez de Cisneros

This podcast is about objects and, more importantly, about some recent new
theoretical conceptualisations of objects in contemporary philosophy and
art. In this second episode, sound artist *Florian Hecker* discusses the
idea of sounds as objects and the notion of decomposition in his recent
chimerical pieces, and *Erick Beltrán* addresses different aspects of
epistemology, the self and identity that have been part of his artistic
practice.


*OBJECTHOOD #3 coming up soon, with an interview with Martin Holbraad and
an artistic intervention by choreographer Quim Pujol*


Enjoy!
