Communicating with the Non-human: Meditations with Microbes and Listening with Plants

Monday, March 22, 3:25pm - 4:40pm (EDT)

Time shown in-04:00 America, New York

Abstract: Three artists will introduce their techniques of communicating with specific non-humans. European-based artists Baum & Leahy’s CELLUMONIALS invites you to connect with your cohabiting microbes and understand your body as an ecosystem of constant lifecycles. Take some gut time and delve deep into the microbial cycles of your body, to connect with the invisible microscopic landscapes living within and around you. A limited supply of microbe meditation pillows will be available in advance to the event. Norwegian artist-engineer Daniel Slåttnes will present Plant Cyborgs, a project of intimate listening in which the artist seeks to understand plants. His robotic creations give plants new opportunities to communicate with us and he will discuss his practices of listening with plants.
