“This is what Erin Manning and Brian Massumi call “the dance of attention,” a mode of neurodiverse engagement that is characterized not by “attentiveness of the human to the environment but attentiveness of the environment to its own flowering” Instead of responding to nature, autists are often keenly aware of how they are nature. And the poetry they write isn’t simply about nature but verily participates in the broad expressivity of the natural world.”
