This contribution summarizes in an undisciplined way electricity as a socio-material, somatic, and epistemological force after a participatory workshop. Drawing from feminist technoscience, membrane theory, and erotic pedagogy, I seek to dissolve the binary between electricity as a technical-industrial extract and as an immanent, bodily, and relational phenomenon. Instead of a traditional academic paper, I offer a set of poetic, Yoko Ono–inspired scores to invite embodied inquiry into charge, transmission, and touch. By attuning to the bioelectrical, the planetary, and the affective, I engage electricity not only as metaphor or infrastructure, but as method, as feeling, as relation.
