Life Beyond Species: How can we Portray the Posthuman?

Braidotti and "De-familiarization"



Through an exploration of portrayals of gender, romance, and emotion in these films, this project seeks to critique the ways in which the demands of popular culture are prone to reverting to humanism– even when the intention is to re-imagine post-human subjectivities. The objective is to distinguish instances of “de-familiarization” from the “perpetuation of familiar regimes” within these films. (Braidotti)
