More Than Human Togetherness

Researchers and writers Gunseli Yalcinkaya, Wassim Alsindi, Joycelyn Longdon with co-curator Susanna Davies-Crook will discuss how contemporary technology can be used to catalyse collectivity & hack the system of individuality, to imagine alternative ways of organising society. 

Taking in how we acknowledge and attend to the colonial and extractive foundations of conservation and technology as well as speculating on quantum relationality, they will provide concrete examples of how technologies could help rather than hinder, and free us from the dystopian loop imaginary of the doom scroll, tech bros, hypercapital, and epidemic of loneliness. 

The panel consider AI, intentional and soft tech in an age of neural media, and what it means to interact with these technologies to envisage and enact a human and more than human future.
