HUMOR
Marine Biodiversity with Prof. Sebastian the Crab
A graduate level survey course
Syllabus for “Biodiverses: The New Marinecentrism and Intersectionality in Subaquatic Ecosystems”
Prof. Sebastian the Crab, Instructor
WEEK ONE: BETTER DOWN WHERE IT’S WETTER? TROPHIC INTERACTIONS AND THE HUMAN “PROBLEM”
The human world, it’s a mess
Life under the sea
Is better than anything they got up there
WEEK TWO: FOMO — DEMOGRAPHIC ANXIETY IN THE AGE OF MANUFACTURED DESIRE
The seaweed is always greener
In somebody else’s lake
You dream about going up there
But that is a big mistake
WEEK THREE: DEFINING THE NEW MARINECENTRISM
Just look at the world around you
Right here on the ocean floor
Such wonderful things surround you
What more is you lookin’ for?
WEEK FOUR: FLOATIN’ — LATE CAPITALISM AND THE FUTURE OF LABOR
Up on the shore they work all day
Out in the sun they slave away
While we devotin’
Full time to floatin’
Under the sea
