How can the human relationship with the other-than-human be reenvisioned as neither destructive nor redemptive but as dynamic and playful? I explore ways that the archetype and practice of the fool and theatrical clowning could highlight this fundamental connection. This autoethnographic performative study draws on the work of such play theorists as Huizinga, Carse, Nachmanovitch, Winnicott, Bateson and Martin, Ackerman, and leadership visionary Wheatley. It is a dance between stories and literature that gives examples of play as a way to navigate and imagine a heart, mind, and body engagement with community.

小丑和傻瓜在地球行动主义中发声

人类与异于人类的关系如何被重新设想为既不是破坏性的，也不是救赎的，而是充满活力和有趣的？我探索了傻瓜和戏剧小丑的原型和实践可以突出这种基本联系的方式。这项自主民族志表演研究借鉴了 Huizinga、Carse、Nachmanovitch、Winnicott、Bateson 和 Martin、Ackerman 以及领导力远见者 Wheatley 等游戏理论家的工作。这是故事和文学之间的舞蹈，提供了游戏的例子，作为一种导航和想象心灵、思想和身体与社区互动的方式。
