Cecilia Åsberg is Professor and chair of Gender, Nature, Culture at Linköping University and its interdisciplinary TEMA department. Her thing is bringing art and science to the very interdisciplinary humanities, and transformative insight to people. She has pioneered feminist practices of posthumanities and creative environmental humanities in Sweden with a focus on multispecies coasts and environed embodiment, on bio-, eco-, and techno-humanities as more than human humanities from her 1990’s starting points in STS, cultural studies, new materialism and feminist philosophy. Åsberg is the founder and director of the research group The Posthumanities Hub since 2008, and in 2013-2017 she was the founding director of the Seed Box, the Swedish national Environmental Humanities research programme (MISTRA-FORMAS). Present oceanic and coastal arts projects include havshumaniora (with Caroline Elgh), Eating the World (with Siobhan Leddy), forest biodiversity data (with Dick Kasperowski, Björn Ekström & Jannice Käll) and Technoecologies (with Alessandra DiPisa & Robert Stasinsky).
