Object-oriented Ontology

Organic life is nothing but a genetic mutation.

Object-oriented Ontology rejects the privileging of human existence over the existence of nonhuman objects. This is in contrast to "anthropocentrism" of Kant's Copernican Revolution, in which phenomenal objects are said to conform to the mind of the subject and, in turn, become products of human cognition.

Object-oriented ontology maintains that objects exist independently (as Kantian noumena) of human perception and are not ontologically exhausted by their relations with humans or other objects.
All relations, including those between nonhumans, distort their related objects in the same basic manner as human consciousness and exist on an equal footing with one another.
