How can we cope with the vertigo that grips us literally and figuratively in the face of what is happening to us and what awaits us? Faced with multiple crises… What if, on the edge of the precipice, we had to learn to live with our vertigo? (Replay from March 21, 2023)
Let us question this vertigo that seizes us, literally and figuratively, in the face of what is happening to us and what awaits us in the face of ecological and existential crises… Our supports are eroding like our certainties, we are losing our usual points of reference, the very ground of the planet on which we live seems to be slipping beneath our feet because we have exhausted it… By living above ground… By thinking of ourselves above, apart, masters of the world and nature , we have forgotten what binds us and connects us to others… to all other human and non-human living beings and as a result, we are literally dizzy in the face of uncertainty, in the face of our common vulnerability… And if, instead of fleeing this vertigo, we tried to cross it?
With the writer-researcher Camille of Toledo for his work A history of vertigo, published by Éditions Verdier.
