LECTURE: Susan Reid // Multibeing Ocean Relationality

ABSTRACT

International law represents the ocean as a divisible, passive resource – pantry, sink, and sump. Speculating across material, temporal and dynamic scales, we will explore four propositions for re-imagining the ocean otherwise. With countervailing agency, seawaters, fish bodies, sea floors, and currents are indivisibly ocean and multibeing.
