* some highlight:
- it shifts the focus to the coloniality of aesthetic by looking at what it erases, at the mechanisms of denial of other worlds sensing, of other form of worldling with earth, communally and ancestrally
-Coloniality appears as the eviction of forms of living, of experiencing, of realizing other worlds of sensing and meaning
- Distinguishing modernity and coloniality is important
- Coloniality: racism, masculinity, whiteness, the human of sovereign-itself; it is the colonial amalgam of patriarchy, racism, and anthropocentrism.
- forming over dwelling? abstraction over rooting?
- it's fundamental to understand aesthetics and aesthesis
- aesthesis: an unelaborated elementary awareness of stimulation; "a sensation of touch" esthesis, sensation, sense datum, sense experience, sense impression. perception or the process of perceiving.
