humanimalia-9971	Grebowicz, Margret	The Holographic Human: Review of Dominic Pettman, Human Error: Species-Being and Media Machines	2013	4	.pdf	application/pdf	1913	61	47	This is to be expected given Pettman’s other work, like Love and Other Technologies (2006), in which he shows that our most erotic, libidinal, and “spiritual” modes of being depend on tools, prosthetics, and media, all in the business of trying to capture the elusive human element, that mythic thing that sets us apart from “other animals.” In particular, Derrida’s articulation of the ontological presuppositions, or, to use Pettman’s term, micromistakes behind the question “does the animal speak?” is in productive alignment with Haraway’s ongoing struggle to work out what she means by “semiotic agency” in the case of animals, a fascinating problem that continues to haunt posthumanist scholarship in spite of the obvious anthropocentrism and -morphism governing all imaginaries of what counts as language.	cache/humanimalia-9971.pdf	txt/humanimalia-9971.txt
