DESCRIPTION:In an era fraught with dizzying socio-political events and burg
 eoning ecological catastrophes\, this workshop for a special issue will de
 lve into the concept of epistemic dizziness as a disordered state of whirl
 ing vertigo\, applying it to the contemporary state of STS. As we navigate
  the tumultuous landscape of an open-ended pandemic\, war\, and socio-ecol
 ogical devastation (Stengers 2021)\, the research practices of STS itself 
 risk inducing ›epistemic dizziness‹. This workshop\, inspired by Donna Har
 away (2016)\, draws on ›serious fun‹ as a means of staving off paralysis a
 nd fainting\, urging that knowledge production can serve as both a coping 
 mechanism and a source of resilience. Repurposing the concept of ›ilinx‹\,
  as delineated by Roger Caillois (1961)\, the series of lecture performanc
 es will critically examine playful dizzying practices in Western\, indigen
 ous\, and other worlds as a pathway towards comprehending our vertiginousl
 y speedy world.
