Summary/Abstract: Xenobiophilosophy would be the kind of thought that, while necessarily viscerally intertwined with its object, could forget its own distinctness from the object – a thought that, in trying to think life beyond the range of modalities imposed by the variables of humanism,would have to become inhuman itself, would have to move in tandem with, yet differently from, both the object of thought and its past thinking trajectories with respect to it.
