In this talk, professor of philosophy, Alejandra Mancilla, asks who should be the political representatives in a place with no human inhabitants, namely, Antarctica. While the Antarctic Treaty has been celebrated as a successful legal instrument for the protection of the continent, some have criticized its elitist nature and demanded a more democratic system of governance. But, should only humans be part of this arrangement? Why not penguins and maybe icebergs too?

Through the Collaboratory Playing with Deep Time, Laura Op de Beke has explored how playful and collaborative storytelling can promote thinking in deep time, reveal stakes and concerns people hold regarding the future and provide a more embodied understanding of extinction and transformation.
