An episode in which we marvel at Chris’ ability to eroticise the most stressful of moments. We chat about transgression, tracking energy, and the ability or inability to absorb failure.
“Thinking-With” is a long-form, unpolished conversation. Join Cat Auburn and Kyle Lewis as they think-with different ideas and people in each season.
“Thinking-with” is a term from Donna Haraway's writing that Cat and Kyle enjoy working with. It acknowledges thinking as an interconnected process, and that who and what we use to think our thoughts with matters greatly. Consciously choosing which tools we use for thinking is key to enabling thoughts that can escape the confines of existing frameworks and systems of power.
