Abstract
Anthropocentrism determines our perception of the world as well as our relationship with it, having a material effect because it permeats our discourses, thinkings, sensitiveness and practices. This article tries to explore how an ontological reformulation that tries to abandon our anthropocentric pressumptions can be an effective material change in our perception, which can also generate changes in our sensitiveness and availability. Understanding ontological boundaries from dynamism and as a contact zone can permit us to access or materialize another kind of realities about to know. Putting in to play some ideas of Donna Haraway, Bruno Latour, Karen Barad and Alfred Whitehead I look for a conceptual development and an ontological reformulation as an effort to understanding ourselves in a more-than-human world.
