Schumacher Institute – To Be Thy Adam – Agency, Activism & Collective Intelligence in the Ruins of the Human

In this conversation, author Dougald Hine, theologian Catherine Keller, philosopher Alex Forrester, and posthumanist thinker Bayo Akomolafe explore new patterns of accountability, agency, collective intelligence, and responsibility. In times marked by intractable wars, insurgent quests for justice and reparations, and the troubling phenomenon of AI, all-too-theological questions emerge of how to think with (and within) the ruins of the modern imaginary.
