In the global context of the Great Acceleration, things and people have been on the move more than ever before. Moritz Frischkorn takes a fresh look at recent performing arts practices that deal with everyday objects on and beyond the stage. Contrasting these practices with the business field of logistics, he examines the aesthetic and ethical concerns of moving things. Drawing on concepts from performance as well as Black studies and philosophy, and based on an artistic-research methodology, the book formulates a notion of more-than-human choreography as an ecologically informed, infinitely indebted practice of living within the material world.

Moritz Frischkorn is a choreographer, performer and researcher based in Berlin. His artistic and academic practice deals with non-human choreographies and their socio-political effects. He produces research-based live performances, writes, curates and teaches, among other at Universität Hamburg, a.pass Brussels, and at Burg Giebichenstein Kunsthochschule Halle.
