This chapter places learning in a posthuman experimentation. This posthuman experimentation engages ‘place as event’ extending from ‘nature as event’ as framed by and formerly by Deleuze (1980), Whitehead (1920) and James (1912). This process of working-through or experimenting attunes creatively to affect and the sensorial as a key engagement of socioecological learning through passages of poetry, photographic essay and creative writing. In effect, the posthumanist learner (re)adjusts to being already entangled as nature and not separated or dominated by humanist dispositions. In this process we acknowledge the everpresent and sometimes incomplete traces of the posthuman, socioecological learner.
