Drugged bodies are commonly depicted as passive, suffering and abject, which makes it hard for them to be known in other ways. Wanting to get closer to these alternative bodies and their resourcefulness for living, I turned to body-mapping as an inventive method for telling different kinds of drug-using stories. Drawing on a research project with people who inject heroin and crack cocaine in London, UK, I employed body-mapping as a way of studying drugged bodies in their relation to others, human and non-human, in the injecting event. I invited participants to draw their bodies in describing these otherwise hard-to-articulate experiences. Following Donna Haraway, I conceptualise body-mapping as a more-than-human mode of storytelling where different kinds of bodies can be known. Here, I look at three such bodies – sensing-bodies, temporal-bodies and environment-bodies – and argue that it is through being able to respond to such bodies that more hospitable ways of living with drugs can become possible.

描绘被吸毒的身体:讲述不同种类的吸毒故事

吸毒的身体通常被描述为被动、痛苦和卑鄙,这使得他们很难以其他方式为人所知。为了更深入地了解这些另类身体及其对生活的足智多谋,我将身体测绘作为一种创造性的方法来讲述不同类型的吸毒故事。根据一项针对在英国伦敦注射海洛因和快克可卡因的人的研究项目,我采用身体测绘作为研究吸毒者身体与他人(人类和非人类)在注射事件中的关系的一种方式。我邀请参与者画出他们的身体来描述这些原本难以表达的经历。跟随唐娜·哈拉维 (Donna Haraway),我将身体测绘概念化为一种超越人类的讲故事方式,可以了解不同种类的身体。在这里,我看三个这样的物体——传感体,
