Encounters with Aquatic Chimeras
Much of how we sort our modern world starts with the visual. Before we could use genetics or had methods for systematic study, groupings usually lay in the rough visual appearance. Even in times of just rudimentary observations of the world, stories of chimeras – fantastic creatures of hybrid origin – were told. Today, such chimeras are generally left in the realm of science fiction, but when we dive into aquatic biodiversity with deep learning, we’re offered the potential to explore and imagine new worldviews.
Entangled Others (Sofia Crespo x Feileacan McCormick)
Entangled Others is the shared studio practice of artists Feileacan McCormick and Sofia Crespo. Their work focuses upon ecology, nature and generative arts, with an emphasis on giving the more-than-human new forms a presence and life in digital space. This involves exploring questions of relationship, biodiversity and awareness through biology-inspired technologies. In turn, they highlight how through conscious efforts, new technology can be used to bring attention and awareness to the unseen with which we are tightly interwoven.
