Hei hei dear readers,
We are woefully behind on blog updates, but wanted to jump in regardless and say.. moikka! The Society happily finds itself back in the Octo-biozone for another summer of lichenous research activities, ensconced at Saari Residence this time with co-conspirator Aliisa Talja to develop our Therolinguistics reading Group. We are baking sourdough bread, getting to know local lichen communities, talking to the sheep, picking berries and cherries and mushrooms, and of course reading a lot of things together and apart in ordinary and curious ways. Some areas of special interest include: the history and practice of therolinguistics, experimental translation, cultures of knowing micro-organisms, earth languages and relational ontologies, fieldwork, biospheres, climate undoing and paradigm shifts… Give us a wave if you’re also passing through the zone!
