5 As is clear from quantum theory, the closer we look at reality, that is, the finer our analytical discernments, the more we find reality to be non-locally ‘smeared out’ into a synthesis of possible worlds in superposition.

Notes on contributors

Alexander Wilson

Alexander Wilson, PhD, is a postdoctoral researcher with the School of Communication and Culture, Aarhus University, Denmark. His work investigates the material conditions of aesthesia, beyond the human, in the mechanisms of emergence in nature, biological evolution and technogenesis. With special focus on the entanglements of aesthetics, cognition and technology, his research draws upon the physical sciences, cosmology, philosophy of mind, and process philosophy, in a broadly materialist framework.
