STS Colloquium - Brandon Costelloe-Kuehn
"Engaging Contexts: Research and Redesign in the Multiscale Worlds of "Communiversity" and "Consent-Baded Siting"
It is broadly accepted in the field of Science and Technology Studies (STS) that rigorous research on multiple scales of context - historical, political, epistemic, social, etc. - is a prerequisite for effective engagement with complex challenges, In STS, contexts are framed as contingent, dynamic, and often in dire need of redesign.
STS Colloquium features Katy Overstreet: "Bioindustrialization and More-Than-Human Community Engagement: "Athlete-Cows" as Agricultural, Scientific, & Social Actors"
As a figure of ongoing bioindustrial processes, the “athlete-cow” embodies more than a century of scientific breeding and feed design, productivist-oriented dairy farming and research, and careful co-ordinations between more-than-human bodies. In Wisconsin, also known as America’s Dairyland, these athlete-cows are often celebrated for their astounding feats of milk production. Yet, their precarious health and the intensive care practices necessary to maintain athlete-cows as (re)producers, point to the fragilities of productivist agriculture.
