ABOUT
The Posthuman Lab was founded by
Dr. Çağdaş Dedeoğlu in 2021.
In December 2024, The Posthuman Lab for Philosophy, Art, and Science / Le Laboratoire Posthumain pour la philosophie, l’art et la science was officially incorporated as a not-for-profit organization under the Canada Not-for-Profit Corporations Act (Corporation No: 1642634-4).
Research at The Posthuman Lab focuses on posthuman approaches to thining-acting for creating more secure, sustainable, and just societies, embracing onto-epistemo-ethical plurality. We seek to understand the world and the worlds beyond humanist, anthropocentric assumptions, and techno-capitalist utilitarianism.
This aim is supported by three objectives:
1) undisciplined rationality,
2) creative criticism, and
3) justice for all.
We welcome researchers, artists, and philosophers to engage in posthuman collaboration with us.
