Book Chapter
Introduction: Acting on or with the World

Published:February 2025

The book’s introduction reviews the overall frame and concerns of the book, focusing on acting-with or poiesis as an unfamiliar but important pattern of action in the world and contrasting it with our usual pattern of acting on or enframing nature and the environment. It discusses the associated posthumanist or dualist ontologies and explains the relation between poiesis as a stance in the world and poetic technologies. It reviews reasons to be interested in poiesis; the role of science, especially in enframing, and of cybernetics and Indigenous knowledges in poiesis; poiesis as picking up threads from the past; and the hybridity of poiesis and enframing.
