Independent Research & Analysis of Relational Dynamics

My name is emsenn, and I study relating as the fundamental force of existence. I'm an independent researcher, coming to the study from lived experience as a Lakota land steward. (See About emsenn)

We're living through the breakdown of the ecology and society we've inherited, and old frameworks of sovereignty, individuality, and possession no longer explain how things actually function.

My work develops relational dynamics as an alternative. Grounded in Lakota epistemologies, relational dynamics is a way of understanding life, governance, and history. (See Introducing Relational Dynamics)

My Essays

A collection of essays I've written. A lot of these are hyperspecific, boring, and poorly written. You've been warned.

My Blog

Here, "blog" stands for "babble log:" a log of my written babbles. Unplanned, generally unedited, usually timely, usually unimportant, but occasionally interesting.
