Corporeography

I want to argue that the body is that “pre-post-erous space,” the site of a corporeography that conjoins the dynamic political economy of signification–its written surface and writing instrument.

As a research strategy, corporeography names a specific dual interest in the bodily and emotional experiences of others and in the knowledge-making capacities of the researching body itself.

In attuning to the errors of air quality index on Sina Weibo, this piece suggests a rethinking of the method of following not simply as a response to a call, but as simultaneously responding and calling. Such a method makes visible the corporeography of the research assemblage that affords a reconceptualisation of anthropocentrism.
