A commissioned text which reflects on the collaborative practice-based research of Snaebjörnsdóttir / Wilson which is focused on the relationship of humans and animals and plant ecology. The text draws upon writings of Barad, Morton, Polanyi, Sloterdijk, and Kimmerer, to present a series of reflections on key terms presented as a critical lexicon or 'bestiary' of Snaebjörnsdóttir / Wilson's collaboration and research, including: resonance, attunement, tacit, dwelling/denning, foam, porosity, and democracy of species.
