    This document discusses post-humanism and the concept of diffraction as an alternative to reflection. It introduces Braidotti and Barad's work on diffraction, where subjects and objects are entangled rather than separate. Diffraction is presented as a way to develop post-humanism using different viewpoints or senses beyond reading, like videos or audio, to show diversity and make a difference by distrusting notions of normalcy.
