ABSTRACT
This text is a simultaneously personal and political commentary on those who inhabit the border between worlds, such as those now at war in a viral assemblage. Starting from a general intention of shifting curricular responses away from instrumental and technical solutions toward cultivating the ability to act and think in times of uncertainty, the argument developed here is that the need to respond to the Covid-19 crisis involves repositioning curriculum and responsibility as caring for the Earth. The article creates a dialogue between cosmoecological alliances of different onto-epistemological practices and formulations that expand the ethics of care for other-than-humans. The central issue is to defend reimagining the relationship between curriculum and subjectivity within interdependent stories on the planet. We do this in order to develop a sort of vaccine to prevent curricular imagination from becoming captive to the geometric coordinates of the economization of life.
