How might biomimicry be an ethical approach to a thriving planet rather than just another way to make cool products for money?
In this episode, I speak with Henry Dicks. Henry is an environmental philosopher and philosopher of technology. He holds a doctorate from the University of Oxford and lectures in environmental philosophy and ethics at University Jean Moulin Lyon 3 and Shanghai University and in the philosophy of biomimicry at the Institut Supérieur de Design de Saint-Malo. We discuss:
🥥 Nature as measure, not in the qualitative sense, but rather as an ethical compass that guides us to respond in ways to life
🥥 Biomimicry as a move away from anthropocentrism through the reconsiderations of our relationships as Nature.
🥥 Biomimicry as a model for AI and the possibilities expanding toward more-than-human intelligences in AI.
This is the second of a 3-part series on Biomimicry, looking at the relational, ethical, and process of Biomimicry.
