Episode 2 explores transformation. How do we become ourselves, what holds us together, and for how long? How are boundaries created, and how bounded are they? We take inspiration from Chapter 11 of the now classic tome, A Thousand Plateaus, by French philosophers Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari. Along the way we get some help from Kym Maclaren, Canadian phenomenologist, and philosopher of intimacy.

Episode 1, Thinking with the Forest, connects the work of Montreal-based anthropologist Eduardo Kohn — and his careful exploration of the question ‘what is a self, and do plants and animals have one?’ — to our own approach to collaborative creation with all the 'selves' around us. The main source for this episode is Kohn's book How Forests Think. We also draw on the work of Jane Bennett and her book Vibrant Matter, Peter Wohlleben and his book The Hidden Life of Trees, and the work of Canadian forest ecologist Suzanne Simard.
