An excellent framework for how to look at cinema through a cephalopodic lens without giving in to the fetishizing impulse that the authors see as endemic to many fields dealing in the hybridization of human/object/ animal theories […] this text is especially useful in establishing an imaginative map of how to approach or engage with media in the winter of 2022, as the globe is deluged, over and over, with world-historic events that destabilize reality. Put differently, this is perhaps the best time for a text that destabilizes how we think of squid, cinema, time, being, and erotics to help imagine futures in an increasingly unstable world.
