We often focus on the what of improvisation without questioning the who (or whom) of the practice. If we think of improvisation as judicious real-time responsiveness to a situation, we might wonder whether the image of the human implicit in that picture needs revision. In this episode, hear Dr. Edgar Landgraf discuss why we should shake off our humanistic hangover and embrace a methodological cybernetic posthumanism. Sound It Out airs on CFRU in Guelph on Tuesdays at 5pm. New episodes usually appear on a fortnightly basis. Sound It Out is produced and hosted by Rachel Elliott in conjunction with the International Institute for Critical Studies in Improvisation. This episode aired on Tuesday November 27, 2018.
