Crochet like Jane Austin

<p>Crochet like Jane Austin*</p><br><p>Anna &amp; Jackie rappel back in time- at least in audio form- on a piece of proverbial yarn - a clue if you will… to explore life through the chains of crochet panels using the language of craft. Jackie brings in Anna on a slice of life exploration of better times. Together they discover the history, the people, and the places that crochet takes us to. Ultimately, illuminating the hobby that brings a new quality of life to Assorted Perspective, the art and craftwork of Crochet.&nbsp;</p><br><p>*Title- Jane Austin probably did needlework in her free time.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong>Digressions on this week’s episode include:&nbsp;</strong></p><ul><li>Lice&nbsp;</li><li>A stitch in time origins</li><li>Letitia Huckaby: Koinonia</li></ul><p> https://www.mcnayart.org/exhibition/letitia-huckaby/</p><br><p>https://www.instagram.com/assorted_perspective/</p><br><p><br></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

What's a Cyborg, really?

<p>Jackie and Anna are back at it again with an Assorted Perspective bonus episode on the philosophy of science and technology of cyborgs. They discuss Donna Harraway’s work, The Cyborg Manifesto, with a modern twist on how we can use the word cyborg today in our own lives.&nbsp;</p><br><p>—---</p><br><p>Note: Anna misspoke: Donna Harraway used Cyborgs as people who use technology to separate their sexual differences (i.e. gender -not sexuality) from society. She writes about the sexual differences that are broken by cyborgs. Anna and Jackie use the word sexuality when they meant to say gender in this episode.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Note 2: Anna misspoke again, if you stopped birth control it would decrease effectiveness each day after you took it out. So, alternative birth control is needed to prevent pregnancy after quitting one. It would not take a week to stop working but a week to altogether remove itself from your anatomy. Hence the blurred line of cyborgs. (Babies don’t care about the philosophy of cyborgs, please be safe out there y’all)&nbsp;</p><br><p>Cyborg - Technology = Human&nbsp;</p><p>But,</p><p>Humans - Medicine = Vulnerable&nbsp;</p><br><p>—---</p><br><p><strong>Source:&nbsp;</strong></p><br><p>Haraway, Donna. 2006. “A Cyborg Manifesto: Science, Technology, and Socialist-Feminism in the Late Twentieth Century.” In The Transgender Studies Reader. Routledge.</p><br><p><br></p><p>Special thanks to Sebastian Bracamontes for the theme music!</p><br><p><br></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
