- Body becoming : a path to our liberation / by Henderson-Espinoza, Robyn,author.;
Prólogo -- (Rupture). What is a body? -- Whose bodies count? -- (Becoming). Becoming body -- Bodies and embodiment -- (Difference). The journey to becoming embodied -- Bodies, violence, and embodiment -- Mind, body, skin, scars -- (Repetition). The healing power of somatics -- The politics of bodies in motion -- Embodiment as a vision for democracy -- Epílogo -- A more perfect union: stories of embodiment in community -- Reflection and somatic offering."The body that Robyn Henderson-Espinoza inhabits is a nonbinary body, a trans body, a body in two races--and a body continually in discovery. Theirs is also a body on sojourn invested in experience, body understanding, and engagement in and for human thriving. Henderson-Espinoza relates coming into a new body story, beginning with the deep emotional work of connecting the abstract intelligence of their mind with their body's intelligence, to explore the relationship between living and becoming, doing and listening. Combining that deep listening and living with their work in activism, Body Becoming offers us a way of understanding the body beyond constructions--political or medical-industrial-complex defined--toward cultivating the body as important in our endeavors to build a more inclusive vision for democracy. Mixing memoir and faith, somatics theory and body practice, Henderson-Espinoza steers us through territory both familiar and difficult--as we discover embodiment as the primary place of deep wisdom, where culture shifts originate and materialize--and a better world becomes, as we too become."--Amazon.- Subjects: Autobiographies.; Henderson-Espinoza, Robyn.; Human body; Gender-nonconforming people; Introspection; Self-consciousness (Awareness); Self-knowledge, Theory of.; Conduct of life.; Transgender people.; Corps humain; Conscience de soi.; Connaissance de soi.; Morale pratique.; Gender non-conforming people.;

- Révolution numérique, révolution culturelle / by Rieffel, Rémy,author.(CARDINAL)749931;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 273-337) and index.La 4e de couverture indique : "Sommes-nous aujourd'hui les acteurs d'une troisième révolution industrielle, après une première fondée sur l'essor de la machine à vapeur et du chemin de fer, puis une une deuxième symbolisée par l'exploitation de l'électricité et du pétrole ? Elles ont en commun de grands réseaux (chemin de fer, électricité, Internet), des innovateurs (James Watt et sa machine à vapeur, Thomas Edison et son empire industriel, Bill Gates et son entreprise Microsoft) et un imaginaire qui annonce la naissance d'une nouvelle humanité. A partir du domaine de la culture (cinéma, photographie, livre, musique, arts, presse, radio, télévision...), Rémy Rieffel prend l'exacte mesure de cette révolution dans les relations à soi-même et aux autres, dans l'accès au savoir ou aux connaissances, dans le rapport à l'information et à l'argumentation. Est-ce une rupture anthropologique de nos sociétés, ou plutôt une nouvelle transformation de nos usages des moyens de communication comme l'humanité en a connu à plusieurs reprises au cours de son histoire ? Simple changement d'échelle ou véritable changement de nature, dans un univers où s'affrontent des valeurs d'émancipation et d'ouverture d'un côté et des stratégies de contrôle et de domination de l'autre ?"The cover states "We are now in the third industrial revolution, the first came with the steam engine and the railroad, with the second is signalled with electricity and oil?" They share large networks (railways, electricity, internet), individual innovators (James Watt had his steam engine, Thomas Edison's industrial empire, Bill Gate's Microsoft). Shaping the culture (movies, photography, book, music, arts, journalism, radio and television). Remy Rieffel relates the current computer revolution to the previous industrial revolutions. Is it a societal breakdown or transformation that has happened several times in history?- Subjects: Telecommunication; Information technology; Information society.;
