<span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;color:#000000;font-weight:400">Crisis has characterised contemporary lives in many ways – as we witness, experience, perform, and respond to entangled health, political, social, and environmental disasters.
For example, in the past few years, the Covid-19 pandemic has affected virtually every area of our lives. Individual, local, national, and global responses have been played out and performed in the media, on social media, and in embodied social landscapes.
Scientists have become the new celebrities, and politicians have risen and fallen according to their Covid management performances. The virus itself has also performed, taking on different guises as it mutates to extend its life and efficacy. Zoom and other
similar platforms have become the new mode of communication for many, generating new forms of visibility, intimate digital surveillance, and networked sociality. Many people have been marginalised or further marginalised by the pandemic, by inequalities
in access to digital technologies as well as health technologies. At the same time there has never been a time when communication, miscommunication, disinformation – about vaccines, mandates, and more – have been so fraught and politicised. As all-encompassing
as the pandemic has seemed at times, it has been eclipsed in some respects, more recently, by public attention to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, which is emerging as the most visible war in history. With visibility comes multiple modes of performance and
performativity, including competing deep fakes, and another arena for the performance of global leaders, politicians, and the public. Meanwhile, the slow violence of Climate Change continues to devastate communities, nations, and species. The Climate itself,
specific ecosystems and landscapes, and non-human creatures, have been acting as key performers in diverse scientific, popular, and media-scapes, garnering global attention as harbingers for a harrowing future, even amidst those who doubt its existence. </span></p>
