Pedagogy is changing fast, not only due to the current plague years but also due to rethinking interspecies relations as a result of the detrimental effect human exploitation is causing. The compulsory and complex effects of our interspecies belonging on the Earth is currently navigated by the anthropocentric human privileging impulses of semiocapitalism. Other epistemes - from science to arts- are deferred to their profitability. A turn to ahuman artistry disavows this semiocapitalism. We must enter becoming-witch, to claim the prioritising of arts and humanities in the decentring of Earth occupancy from human to ahuman. We must instigate occult practices of pedagogy - creativity first, alterations of patterns of pleasure which explode patterns of power, belief without dogma, hope without goal.
