Article:
Welcher Tisch? Relationale Ontologien affirmieren!

Author(s): Trinkaus, Stephan

Abstract

Matter has no outside. There is no opposite to material process; even immateriality is a dimension of matter. Like most of the more recent ontological and/or materialistic and realistic trends of recent years, this essay assumes it is important to destabilize the distance between knowledge and the world, in the maintenance of which media and cultural studies practices of reflection, criticism, and analysis have been and are involved. At the same time, media studies is the discipline that has always undermined the old boundaries and juxtapositions of culture and nature, spirit and matter, ontology and epistemology, and that has always had to do so in order to assert itself as a transdisciplinary discipline. The short sections of this text wish to participate in the turn currently taking place via a transdisciplinary thinking of matter and to contribute to the interference this turn makes possible in media studies.
