is ontology the identifying of all the different facets? or the study of each one and how far reaching it can go? or is it to get involved with every one/just one?
is Bogost saying that there shouldn’t be an “I” or saying that everything can be the “I”? or that everything should just be “it”s because I am just a unit of things?
“The alien is anything – and everything – to everything else.” – Bogost, pg. 34
perhaps an example of an alien is air.

• on the other, it is everything to everything as well – we all need it. even the computers. they have a fan inside because they need the air to circulate and keep it cool.
