We are all compost, not post-human.
Donna Haraway, Staying with the Trouble, 2015 

Mr Patate, the humanoid, sympoietic, petrochemical exuvia of his author with limbs branching out into tubers, levitates ecstatically in the heart of the great hall at Le Fresnoy (on the exact spot where his grandparents first met 76 years earlier). Inextensible, the iridescent moult of this holobiont is animated by a thousand ghostly memories. This mnemonic microbiota, composted by AI, adopts the trance-like state that accompanies any moult.
