Feral Fields Sympoiesium : Practicing with More-than-Human Vartiosaari

The sympoiesium brings together creative practitioners and researchers working with multispecies ecologies to explore diverse approaches to more-than-human co-creation – of knowledge, data, experiences, and relations. We will focus, among others, on the 1) ethical aspects of more-than-human co-creation (who can participate, to what extent? whose interests and futures are considered?) the 2) diverse aesthetic forms this can take in practice (how could these collaborations sound, smell, taste, look, feel like?), and the 3) wider sociopolitical contexts of living and collaborating with/as more-than-human ecologies (including e.g. questions of more-than-human personhood and authorship).
