Invited talk #2

Title

"On Dignity" 

Abstract

This project focuses on the intersection of discourses on dignity: legal, ethical, social, performative and evolutionary. We talk about dignified life, death, and old age; the dignity of the human corpse and human beings. But what is dignity and do we need it? This project argues that in order to answer any questions about our posthuman future (and whether or not it will deprive us of our dignity), we need to first understand what dignity is, what it has been, and what it might become.
