What is Mutation?

À l’heure des mutations écologiques, de la remise en cause des idéaux de progrès continu et d’abondance, de la défiance à l’égard du savoir scientifique, la célèbre question tripartite d’Emmanuel Kant (Que puis-je savoir ? Que dois-je faire ? Que m’est-il permis d’espérer ?) semble recouvrer sa vertigineuse pertinence. Une question que le philosophe et sociologue des sciences Bruno Latour - en compagnie de Nicolas Truong - reprend en quelque sorte à son compte.

"The Mutation Station" is a gripping podcast that delves deep into the fascinating world of genetic mutations. Hosted by a mutant, each episode explores a different mutation, from the well-known like Heterochromia Iridium to the more obscure like chimerism and diastema.Listeners will be taken on an enlightening journey through the intricacies of each mutation, learning about the genetic causes and how they manifest in the human body. But "The Mutation Station" doesn't just stop there. Each episode will also dive into the historical and cultural significance of these mutations, exploring how ...

The Spontaneous Mutation podcast aims to reclaim the narratives around facial difference. In science, a spontaneous mutation is a genetic change with no known cause. This was the explanation songwriter and host Halley Elwell was given by doctors when she was diagnosed with Neurofibromatosis at age 11. No one else in her family has the condition, which causes tumors to grow on nerves and has affected the appearance of her jaw, chin, and neck. For this project, Elwell decided to use the term as an artistic lens. She knew what happened when a gene mutated and how it made her appearance change, ...

Dino Sapiens, c’est le podcast pour celles et ceux qui refusent de croire que l’entreprise est figée, ou condamnée à répéter les mêmes modèles. C’est une invitation à écouter autrement, penser autrement, et faire émerger de nouveaux récits dans des organisations en mutation. Dans un monde traversé par des tensions écologiques, sociales, numériques et humaines, les organisations sont à la croisée des chemins. Comment tenir dans la complexité ? Comment bouger sans se trahir ? Et surtout, qui sont les personnes qui façonnent ces mutations de l’intérieur, souvent loin ...

Stepping effortlessly from myth to cutting-edge science, Mutants gives a brilliant narrative account of our genetic code and the captivating people whose bodies have revealed it - a French convent girl who found herself changing sex at puberty; children who, echoing Homer's Cyclops, are born with a single eye in the middle of their foreheads; a village of long-lived Croatian dwarves; one family, whose bodies were entirely covered with hair, was kept at the Burmese royal court for four generations and gave Darwin one of his keenest insights into heredity.
