Description

This bonus content is a reading from Platypus, the CASTAC Blog. The full post by Mauricio Baez can be read at https://blog.castac.org/2025/09/feeling-adrift-in-the-ethnography-of-a-laboratory/. About the post: This reflection explores the possibilities of broadening our perspective on laboratory work by incorporating an analysis of the ordinary dynamics that shape the surrounding spaces. I propose that such an examination can reveal an affective network shared between scientists and their environment, which is essential for understanding how the relationships necessary for research are produced and sustained. This is especially relevant for those of us interested in understanding the geopolitics of scientific knowledge in situated contexts, particularly within regions of the Global South.
