Summary/Abstract: In the article, the author discusses a new cultural phenomenon known as ASMR, in particular its interest in multi-sensuality, in a posthuman perspective related to the non-hierarchical nature of human senses. The text analyzes selected ASMR videos published on the YouTube website, focusing on ways to show different sensory impressions (connected with images, sounds, haptics, aromas, flavours), putting forward the thesis that ASMR practices promote posthuman type of sensitivity and encourage the production of alternative modes of experiencing the world.
