my friend Ishaan Selby wrote about pop culture police dogs, and the way their use is iconic of, reconfiguring and exemplifying, rising racial biocapitalism. humanimalia.org/article/view...

I also like Neko Case. Not sure about heteronormative biocapitalism.

Join me this Thursday at CETE-P in Prague for my talk, "Necrovalue and the Vital Politics of Death Itself". I’ll discuss how life is leveraged as a new source of capital accumulation within synthetic molecular biology.

“We can speak of *biocapitalism* insofar as it is no longer labour that is presented as the source of added value, as in the capitalism described by Marx, but life itself as the capacity to organize matter.”

If biology is understood as technology, then life itself can be reduced simply to informatic code under biocapitalism

🚀📚 #PosthumanFridays begins!

Every week we’ll recommend a novel that shapes our research on #posthumanism, tech, & contemporary lit. 🌍✨

First up: The Body Scout (2021) by Lincoln Michel ⚾🧬 A sharp sci-fi noir where body mods meet biocapitalism — and justice gets a cybernetic twist. 💀

One day I will teach my dream seminar on the history of biocapitalism, so if you are lucky enough to be doing something of the sort, you might also consider it for that as well. Mil gracias for sharing/reading, y'all!

And then, THEN! I hit Alys Eve Weinbaum's Afterlife of Reproductive Slavery (and its discussion of biocapitalism) and I feel dizzy and emotionally overcome.
