While it features occasional guests, Immanence is edited and mostly written by me, Adrian Ivakhiv. As of spring 2024, I hold the J. S. Woodsworth Chair in the Humanities at Simon Fraser University in Vancouver, Canada. For about two decades before that, I was a Professor of Environmental Thought and Culture at the University of Vermont, where I taught, researched, and wrote about topics found at the intersections of culture, ecology, identity, media, philosophy, religion, and the arts, and where I coordinated the EcoCultureLab. I continue my U. of Vermont affiliation in an emeritus capacity.
I’m the author of books on philosophical living in the shadow of the Anthropocene, the “ecologies” of film and cinema, the politics of “Gaian” pilgrimage and ecological sacred space, and well over a hundred scholarly articles and book chapters, popular publications, encyclopedia articles, and more.
You can find more information about me here, read an interview for the critical geography journal Society and Space here, find some other autobiographical and podcast stuff here, or listen to Krista Tippett’s interview with me on her National Public Radio show “Speaking of Faith,” now called “On Being,” here. If you’re anything like me, you might find these 25 random things about me amusing.
