An enquiry into non-human, human and artificial minds

The Shape of a Circle in the Mind of a Fish is an edited collection that brings together interventions across the arts, the humanities, and the sciences to investigate animal, plant and fungal intelligence, consciousness and affects, machine sentience, and interspecies communication.

Edited by Lucia Pietroiusti and Filipa Ramos, the publication includes original conversations, essays, interviews, meditations, poems, and artwork representations by 100 authors - activists, anthropologists, artists, biologists, ecologists, gardeners, musicians, philosophers, theologians, and more.
