Het interview met #JaneGoodall in #VPRO #Wintergasten bracht mij de film #MyOctopusTeacher weer in herinnering. Ontroerende documentaire over filmmaker #CraigFoster die een intieme vriendschap opbouwt met een #octopus. Ongekende schoonheid.

Having watched #MyOctopusTeacher, I get why #researchers are interested in studying #octopus and wanting to understand/extend its #lifeCycle. #Intelligent #sentient #complex #fascinating #creatures - with sadly #shortLives. I stopped eating them because of their #sentience #intelligence. They need to be #protected and treated #humanely.
#octopusFarm is a #sideshow #tourist stop with a veneer of #science. Takes advantage of #octopuses #notProtected in #America #USA.

Missing from my intro is my longstanding collaborative work #oktolab - an interdisciplinary research project on all things cephalopod (begun long before #myoctopusteacher - don’t get me started on that!)
2 exhibitions in nipaluna Hobart and Cologne, multiple symposia, quite a few essays and conference papers, and a book hopefully coming out next year. Collab with @YvetteWatt André Krebber & Martin Ullrich
