[ecrea] General Organology international conference

General Organology
The Co-individuation of Minds, Bodies, Social Organisations and Techne
20th-22nd November 2014
International Conference
University of Kent

General organology proposes to rethink the relations between biological 
organs, technical organs and social organisations and how all of these 
individuate in the socius. General organology draws from the original 
practice of organology in musicology, which is the study of the history 
of musical instruments, their practices and their social roles in all 
civilizations and historical periods. Yet general organology is not 
limited to the study of musical instruments but it takes into account 
all technical instruments and their effects on biological and social organs.

In addition to Marianne Wolf, Maurizio Lazzarato and Bernard Stiegler, 
other renowned academics will present on the project of general 
organology: Cornelius Borck (Lübeck), Antoinette Rouvroy (FNRS and 
Namur), Francesco Vitale (Salerno), John Mowitt (Leeds), Michael Lewis 
(UWE), Ian James (Cambridge), Martin Crowley (Cambridge), Ben Roberts 
(Bradford), Patrick Crogan (UWE), Yuk Hui (Leuphana), Pieter Lemmens 
(Radboud University of Nijmegen), and many others.
