AB - Being is the activity of constantly constructing new actor-networks in the flow of energy. It is a recursive activity in which existing actor-networks are deconstructed and reconstructed into new actor-networks. In our image of being, the idea of ‘deconstruction’ or ‘decomposition’ or ‘decay’ for the construction of a new being is forgotten. In other words, being is a process of life, death and decomposition in a cyclical flow of creation and destruction, and we as individuals appear and disappear in this ontic cyclical flow. However, in this cyclical movement of being, each being is always connected to past and future beings, and decomposition is a process that allows this connecting force to extend to other beings. Fungi, or mushrooms, exemplify this ability to extend over other beings through decomposition, and our symbiosis with them illustrates that being is always sympoiesis, or making-together.
